Review: Crucifixion Creek (The Belltree Trilogy, #1)

I really enjoy Maitland’s Brock and Kolla books, so thought I’d give his Belltree series a go. This is set in Sydney, and has a very different tone to Brock & Kolla. The story revolves around bikie gangs and some very unpleasant deaths and torture ensue. Harry Belltree is a homicide detective who has no qualms in meting out his own form of rough justice to deserving criminals.
My husband really enjoyed this book, but I found I didn’t warm to Harry Belltree, although his wife Jenny almost redeems him! Although well written, with a cracking pace, this book was not really ‘my cup of tea’!
