Consolation
Australia’s favourite country cop, Hirsch, is back in this new edition of Consolation, the follow-up to Peace and Bitter Wash Road.
In Consolation, Tiverton’s only police officer, Constable Paul Hirschhausen, is dealing with a snowdropper. Someone is stealing women’s underwear, and Hirsch knows how that kind of crime can escalate.
Then, two calls come in: a teacher thinks a child may be in danger at home, and a father is on the rampage at the primary school.
Hirsch knows how situations like these can escalate, too. Families under pressure, financial problems—it's always a surprise when the killing starts.
