Publisher's Summary

Cato Kwong is back. Back in Boom Town and back on a real case – the unsolved mystery of a missing fifteen-year-old girl. But it's midsummer in the city of millionaires and it's not just the heat that stinks.
A pig corpse, peppered with nails, is uncovered in a shallow grave and a body, with its throat cut, turns up in the local nightclub. As a series of blunders by Cato's colleague brings the squad under intense scrutiny, Cato's own sympathy for a suspect threatens to derail his case and his career.
‘Getting Warmer is replete with such gems. It's a winner.' SYDNEY MORNING HERALD
‘… witty, well researched and confident, this tale of crime in Australia's “boom town” is a rollicking good read for those who enjoy a thrilling story.' MINESTYLE MAGAZINE

I love this WA set crime story, gritty and humorous

It is a joy to hear my favourite genre set in the place and time that I grew up.
The narration and character voices are brilliant and would have deserved 5 stars if it wasn’t for the terrible mispronunciation of a number of suburbs and towns through both this book and the previous one.
I definitely recommend this book.
