And when he goes off-grid to investigate, that’s when things start to get dangerous.'' ''Set in Sydney, this dark, morally ambiguous and adrenaline-charged new series is a triumphant change of direction for Barry Maitland.'' 〔(from the Publisher's website )〕 #''Crucifixion Creek: The Belltree Trilogy, Book One'', ISBN 9781922182456, ASIN B00LZ1U6IY, Text (24 September 2014) He has also written a stand-alone novel that does not belong to either of these series, ''Bright Air'' (2008). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Barry Maitland」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
