Green River
(2024)(The fifth book in the Detective Ange Watson Mystery series)
A novel by P G Robertson
If you enjoy evocative and suspenseful police mysteries, then you'll love the Detective Ange Watson Thrillers.
Detective Ange Watson thought she was riding high after two major wins. She’d cracked open a human trafficking ring, rescuing vulnerable young women, and as a bonus, dismantled an illegal cannabis operation along the way. For a brief moment, it felt like justice had prevailed.But the celebration was short-lived.
A shadowy cover-up is unravelling, and instead of pursuing the real criminals, Ange’s superiors seem hell-bent on silencing her. Someone powerful is pulling the strings, and Ange is in their crosshairs.
She needs to dig deep within herself to find the strength for this battle. But her hatred for those who exploit the vulnerable burns brighter than ever, and corruption only fans the flames.
As she delves deeper, she uncovers a web of exploitation and cruelty that stretches into the merciless Australian Outback. Innocent lives are on the line—young women cast aside and treated like commodities. For them, Ange is their last hope.
The clock is ticking, and the stakes have never been higher. Failure isn’t an option, but Ange will need to navigate a maze of lies, greed, and betrayal to succeed. She is up for the fight, but it won’t be easy. Is Ange ready for what she’ll uncover?
Strap in tight—this case is about to get rough...
'Ange is a great character, and I thoroughly enjoyed the books—especially with all the twists and turns. Billy definitely hits the mark as a contemporary investigator and the role they play is vital in all investigations,' Senior Detective with the Brisbane Homicide Squad."The Detective Ange Watson novels are evocative Australian surf noir (if that’s not a thing, it should be), a cross between Garry Disher and early Don Winslow, and combine environmental activism, political corruption, star chamber hearings, suspicious property developers, and a few sexy bits. Highly recommended!!’ Sarah Elks, book reviewer and senior journalist at The Australian newspaper.
