Arthur Upfield's Australian Napoleon Bonaparte mystery series, written in the 30s and 40s has won him millions of fans all over the world. The half-caste detective, Napoleon Bonaparte, "Bony," stands out as a timeless hero locked in a struggle to reconcile his white university education with the acute power of his aboriginal senses.
In "The Bone is Pointed", the Australian bush has claimed another man, Jeffrey Anderson. Five months later Bony begins a thorough invesigation. When he spots a gray feather dipped in blood he realizes that a ghostly presence from the local Kalchut tribe is silently tracking his every move--a presence that alerts every part of him that is linked to the bush.
This is one of the very best of the "Bony" series. It is very suspenseful and steeped in Australian atmosphere. It has been a favorite of mine for years.
