GANGLAND AUSTRALIA
By James Morton and Susanna Lobez
'Gangland
Australia' is a book about organised crime and the professional criminals who
have recklessly cut a swathe through Australia over the last 200 years. It is
a book with accounts of murder, robbery, standover, prostitution, drugs, great
escapes, revenge, betrayal, corruption, police, lawyers, doctors and politicians.
A forensic investigation of criminal gangs in Australia, from
convicts and bushrangers right up to the recent gangland slayings in Melbourne.
It is written in a very accessible style, with a narrative flow which reads as
part history, part-thriller. The authors have done extensive research and cover
a myriad of Australian crime histories including tracing back the beginnings of
drug trafficking, ethnic crime waves, and police corruption, to name a few.
Written
by one of Britain's most popular true crime authors, James Morton, and leading
Australian legal journalist, Susanna Lobez, this is the latest in Morton's highly
successful series, which includes 'Gangland', 'Gangland: The Early Years', 'Gangland
International: The Mafia and Other Mobs', and 'Gangland: The Lawyers'.
'Gangland
Australia' is available now.
