Death Twitch: An Australian Grey Nomad Mystery, cartea 1
Autor Dt Bombaen Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 sep 2018
A bird lover's cozy mystery. Twitching in Australia's Outback turns deadly.
Down Under is a land famous for adventure. But as enterprising research nomads Nora Pinot and Steve Summers discover, even paradise has its downsides. An Outback birdwatching tour to find Australia's mysterious palm cockatoo turns out to be filled with treachery and murder. Probo is under threat and needs a lifeline. The journey of a lifetime to the tip of Cape York proves to be more than any of the twitchers had bargained on. For some this truly is the last ride. Trying to untangle the dark web of bird smuggling pushes Nora and Steve to their limits as they scramble to solve the mystery before the tour ends. Did the birds do it or was it all just a big cultural misunderstanding? A fun light hearted mystery that will make you smile and keep you guessing. This is the debut novel featuring the Mad Professor and the Adventure Doctor. Two amateur sleuths who have joined the ranks of Australia's "grey nomads" and travel around Australia in a snazzy caravan. They happen to get into all sorts of murky situations which requires them to solve some pretty wicked mysteries. WHAT READERS SAY
I loved the twists and turns of the story, and never worked out who was the murderer until the very end of the story. The murders were
committed on a bird watching tour at the "Top End" and the story is so different and very enthralling to the last page. I cannot wait for the next book. I recommend this book to all comers.

Witty, fast paced and a really good "who done it". On top of that it dishes up a great taste of outback Australia and the bush characters in it. Recommend it highly.

This is a great fun read...Great characterisation and pretty well written. Will look forward to whatever else David Bomba comes up with. And for those who don't know, bulldust is a real thing. (Checked that out with my travelling sister-in-law).
IRENE SAUMAN,
Goodreads Review
An edgy first "whodunnit' novel for DT Bomba written with humour and the Aussie knack of creating a good story out of the unexpected ... Here's to a big future DT, looking forward to the next book and Steve's continued adventures with Nora. Highly recommended.

Notă biografică
David Bomba, aka DT Bomba, Dr Dave, Denmark Dave, is a fiction writer, former award winning ecotourism business owner and one time senior researcher, PhD. He has written non-fiction and fiction and all sorts in between. He is the author of The Australian Grey Nomad Mystery Series; and numerous non-fiction titles in scientific journals. He is a foundation member of the Great Southern Writers' Group of Western Australia and a member of the Australian Cosy Mystery Readers group on Facebook. When not writing, Dave likes to volunteer as a radio announcer, tour guide and also works as a casual visitor experience officer. An interesting fact you may not know about him is that he's very protective of his chooks: Solo, Twistea and Cheezel who like to play devil's advocate, silent mentors, especially when he's rambling on about book ideas or doing readings. They're great listeners but no so good with feedback. Dave likes to interpret their silence as admiration. It keeps him going. They were also the inspiration for Book 2 Chicken Trance.
