Sugar Shack

Z, Obi and Cutter, three modern day slaves, walk into a bar in Northern Queensland. It is J. Blackbird's place, Sugar Shack, and J. is the descendant of a Kanaka slave. Each of them in turn tells their story. Meanwhile, Charlie Muller, Z's pimp, has tracked her down and is heading north to take back what he considers is his property. Innocent bystanders get caught up in Charlie's anger and there are several deaths, but in the end, no one is convicted of murder. Sugar Shack is an experimental crime novel set in North Queensland, a mystery that is revealed in three parts.
