George Overton's Justice is a book containing five detective stories set in Sydney. This author has, as in his other George Overton stories, a knack for describing Sydney in the heady years just after World War II. Retired Sydney detective George Overton can't seem to avoid getting involved in people's problems, including a body buried under the green of the Balmain Bowling Club, a writer who believes he would sell more books if he were dead and a Santa Claus who is not what he appears to be. Then there's a touch of conspiracy at the Town Hall and a man's love of curry gets him more than he bargained for. The easy-going style and interesting characters make for a good read.
