Description
Alan Carter's books have been awarded the Ned Kelly Award for Best First Fiction. The Nick Chester series won the Ngaio Marsh Award for Best Crime Fiction.
Getting Warmer brings Cato Kwong back to Boom Town and back on a real case—the unsolved mystery of a missing fifteen-year-old girl. But it's midsummer in the city of millionaires, and it's not just the heat that stinks. A pig corpse, peppered with nails, is uncovered in a shallow grave, and a body, with its throat cut, turns up in the local nightclub.
As a series of blunders by Cato's colleague brings the squad under intense scrutiny, Cato's own sympathy for a suspect threatens to derail his case and his career.

About the Author
Alan Carter was born in Sunderland, UK. He immigrated to Australia in 1991 and divides his time between his house near the beach in Fremantle and a hobby farm up a remote valley in New Zealand. He sometimes works as a television documentary director. In his spare time he follows a black line up and down the local swimming pool. He is the author of three Cato Kwong novels - Prime Cut, Getting Warmer and Bad Seed - and a new novel set in New Zealand, Marlborough Man.
