Publisher's Summary

Ten years on from the original bestselling Gangland Australia, top true-crime writer James Morton and barrister and broadcaster Susanna Lobez conspire again to track the rise and fall of Australia's talented contract killers, brothel keepers, robbers, bikers, standover merchants, conmen and drug dealers. They examine the role of police, politicians and lawyers who have aided and busted criminal empires and look at the recent rise of youth gangs, cyber crime, identity theft and sexploitation scams. Vivid and explosive, Gangland Oz: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow is compulsive listening.

Ordinary

Narration hard to listen to. Statement of dates and mispronunciation of some Australian towns very frustrating. Tedious at times

Terrible narration

I am really struggling to listen to this book as the narrator sounds like she is narrating a children’s book. Makes it very difficult to get into it & I find myself constantly turning it off. A shame as it’s entirely possible the actual content is fine

Mostly true, and thereby boring.

If a constant stream of dates, crimes and sentences could possibly be made less entertaining, add a biased, condescending Hyacinth Bucket voiced narration! Only sheer willpower and 'getting my money's worth' made me listen to the end. The facts are mostly true, but a lot of the anti-biker sentiment is the narrator's own opinion.

That voice was annoying and slow

Couldn't even finish the sample so no way I could listen to the whole book.

Well worth it

Great history of how crime has developed in Australia, good pace and length. Worth every minute.
