Synopsis

Who can you trust when even the investigators are under investigation? When a young Asian student is strangled, Nickie Taroney is determined to do everything to help the police. On the case is Detective Terry Dedovic, a man with a messy past looking for redemption. But there is something about Dedovic that Nickie doesn't trust. Why is he running errands for a group of ex-drug squad police? Where exactly do his loyalties lie? When Nickie becomes involved in a risky sexual relationship, her worst suspicions are confirmed. The Dogs Are Barking is a thrilling journey through Sydney's underworld, a place where corrupt police and drug-dealers work together, and a place where the boundaries between good and evil are blurred.

Media Reviews
Confident Sydney thriller, which recalls the reductive world of Jim Thompson...stark urban imagery, emotional ambush, balletic violence, and a cast of speedballs * Guardian *
Succeeds in turning the well-tended streets of Sydney into something resembling the seedier parts of Los Angeles * Sunday Times *
Love, loss and low-life in this provocative Australian thriller * New Woman *
