Описание:

Why was King Henry, an aboriginal from Western Australia, killed in New South Wales? What was the feud that led to murder after nineteen long years had passed? Who was the woman who saw the murder and kept silent?

This first story of Inspector Bonaparte takes him to the Darling River bush country where he encounters those problems he understands so well - mixed blood and divided loyalties.

'Rampageous fisticuffs, rough scenery and rougher, dust-covered sheepmen and wanderers, dignified aboriginals, and so much interest and local colour.' - Books and Bookmen

Clues are scarce in this sun-baked, sand-blown country, but Bony`s understanding of the bush and the people who live there - both black and white - leads him inexorably towards the killer...

Описание:

The discovery of a stolen red monoplane on the dry, flat bottom of Emu Lake meant many things for different folks. For Elizabeth Nettlefold, the chance to nurse its strangely ill meant renewed purpose in life. For Dr Knowles, brilliant physician and town drunk, it meant the revival of a romantic dream. For some it meant a murder plan gone awry, and for Bonaparte, it meant one of the toughest cases of his career.

Описание: Broome is a little sun-drenched town on the barren north-west coast of Australia, the kind of place where everyone knows everyone else`s business, where all the little bungalows might be glass for all the secrets they hide. How then had the murderer of Broome`s two most attractive widows got away without leaving a single clue?

Описание: Dit boek beschrijft de methode CATS CM, versie 4 voor het managen van contracten en is toe te passen binnen private en publieke organisaties, bij opdrachtgevers en leveranciers.Contractmanagement is het realiseren van de met het contract beoogde doelstellingen door tijdens de uitvoeringsfase van een contract, proactief invulling te geven aan alle contractueel vastgelegde verantwoordelijkheden, verplichtingen, procedures, afspraken, voorwaarden en tarieven, het management van de risico`s, het oplossen van alle onduidelijkheden, tegenstrijdigheden en hiaten en het verzorgen van de gewenste wijzigingen in het contract. CATS CM(R) biedt een methodische aanpak voor contractmanagement. Het beschrijft de uitgangspunten, de rollen, de aandachtpunten voor de contractmanager en de te volgen werkwijze. Naast een beschrijving van de methode biedt CATS CM versie 4 ook handvatten voor de implementatie van contractmanagement zowel voor beleid als proces.Een groot aantal organisaties heeft CATS CM inmiddels geselecteerd als basis voor hun contractmanagementproces. Mede op basis van hun ervaringen met CATS CM is deze nieuwe versie 4 ontstaan. CATS CM 4 gaat net als voorgaande edities uit van het standpunt dat het managen van een contract in uitvoering, aan beide kanten van het contract (opdrachtgever en leverancier) sterke overeenkomsten vertoont en dus het best in samenhang wordt beschreven. Dit boek is bedoeld voor iedereen die verantwoordelijk is voor, dan wel te maken heeft met contracten in uitvoering: contractmanagers, businessmanagers, deliverymanagers, projectmanagers, servicemanagers, facilitymanagers, inkopers, inkoopmanagers, compliance managers, risicomanagers, accountmanagers, salesmanagers en HR-managers, hun directeuren en stuurgroepleden aan beide zijden van het contract.

Описание:

It is in a harsh and eerie landscape - the crater formed by the meteor they called "The Stranger" - that another stranger is found... dead. In an area where the presence of every outsider is announced by the bush telegraph, how had this man passed unreported? Who was he? How had he died? No tracks around the crater and no stranger in town. It soon becomes obvious to Bony that both the locals and the Aboriginals are guarding a secret - untill the will of the Tribe breaks their silence...

This is undoubtedly Upfield's strongest book, for a number of reasons: 1) Bony is at his best in his detective work; 2) Upfield is at his best in studying the social and cultural situations of the white and the Aboriginals; 3) though the physical setting is less intense than in some other works, it is strong here; 4) Upfield's symbolism - especially in the use of the metaphor of clothes vs nakedness - is extraordinarily complex. There is no doubt that this particular book is a masterpiece in every way. - from The Spirit of Australia by Ray Brown.

Описание:

Myra Thomas, apparently dressed only in nightgown and slippers, has walked off the train somewhere along the 650 kilometres of track that crosses the Nullarbor Plain. With two camels and a dog, Bony begins to search the desert in search of her. He finds more than he bargins for - only to find a group of people imprisoned in the extensive limestone caves beneath the desert plain...

This is surely one of the two or three strangest of Upfield's novels. It is an eerie mixture of Aboriginal folk customs and white man's greed and lust for revenge. Something of a study of abnormal psychology, it nevertheless turns on people's very natural and nasty feelings... This book is a splendid combination of plot, setting and development. - from The Spirit of Australia by Ray Brown.
