The Tall Man - Chloe Hooper
- 0 Comments
As featured in the Good Weekend today The Tall Man is the Chloe Hooper’s second novel - and the real life tale of death and life on Palm Island.
This is the story of Palm Island, the tropical paradise where one morning Cameron Doomadgee swore at a policeman and forty minutes later lay dead in a watch-house cell.
This is the story of that policeman, the tall, enigmatic Christopher Hurley who chose to work in some of the toughest and wildest places in Australia, and of the struggle to bring him to trial.
Above all The Tall Man is a story in luminous detail of two worlds cashing - and a haunting moral puzzle that no reader will forget.
