The best new Australian crime novel since Peter Temple's The Broken Shore. When a teenage boy is killed in a drive-by shooting, the events that unfold rock the lives of the migrant families of Cringila. School friends Jimmy and Piggy have witnessed the violent crime, but need to protect their fledgling drug business. After seasoned police detective Gordon Winter is assigned the murder case, his investigations uncover more than one death and an entrenched culture of loyalty and fear. On Cringila Hill weaves a gripping story of power, racial tensions and blood ties in a once-vibrant industrial community.
