The Empty Beach (1985)
Voordat de louche zakenman John Singer van Bondi Beach verdween, betekende zijn naam geld - groot en klein, schoon en vies - een man die opging in een wereld van hebzucht en oneerlijkheid. De weduwe van Singer, Marlon, gelooft dat hij nog leeft en ze gebruikt de onderzoeksvaardigheden van de stoere, no-nonsense privédetective, Cliff Hardy om hem te vinden. Gehavend en gekneusd vecht Hardy zich door het vuil van corruptie en de stank van politieke chantage. Hij komt oog in oog te staan met de misdaadbazen, die zich voeden met menselijke ellende en hun rivalen elimineren zonder er twee keer over na te denken. Van het hoge leven en het lage leven van Sydney tot de louche en pracht van Bondi Beach, Cliff Hardy onthult de ultieme waarheid.
