    About this series

    Wyatt needs a job.

    A bank job would be nice, or a security van hold-up. As long as he doesn't have to work with cocky idiots and strung-out meth-heads like the Pepper brothers. That's the sort of miscalculation that buys you the wrong kind of time.

    So he contacts a man who in the past put him on the right kind of heist. And finds himself in Noosa, stealing a painting for Hannah Sten.

    He knows how it's done: case the premises, set up escape routes and failsafes, get in and get out with the goods unrecognised. Make a good plan; back it up with another. And be very, very careful.

    But who is his client? Who else wants that painting?

    Sometimes, being very careful is not enough.

    ‘For the connoisseur of crime the Wyatt series represents Disher at his stylish best…wicked and wonderful. Welcome back, Wyatt.' – Sydney Morning Herald

      The first book in the acclaimed Wyatt series, by one of Australia's most revered crime writers. Wyatt robs banks and payroll vans. Most men like him are dead or in jail, but Wyatt stamps a cold, pitiless style on his heists and has never been caught. Now his funds are low and his luck is running out — until the day Anna Reid explains about the kickback in her partner's safe. But other players are involved. In Wyatt's world, there is no yielding, no redemption, and when he's crossed, the outcome is inevitable. ‘Tough, realistic, crime-from-the-inside…' SYDNEY MORNING HERALD

      Wyatt made some powerful enemies in his first three outings, and the time has come to confront them. But we know by now that Wyatt's revenge won't be showy, impetuous and futile; it will be pragmatic, elaborate—and still possibly futile. He holes up in Sydney, preparing to return home to Melbourne to play his enemies against each other in a dangerous double-cross that will tear down the notions of loyalty and obligation. Wyatt is meticulous, demanding and implacable, and this may be the toughest, coolest and most uncompromising series in Australian literature. ‘Violent, gripping, realistic.' SUNDAY AGE ‘As hard as it gets and very entertaining.' WEEKEND AUSTRALIAN

      Patient, exacting and not particularly lucky, Wyatt is a criminal's criminal and this series is one of the most compelling in Australian fiction. After the heists gone wrong in Kickback and Paydirt, Wyatt is further down on his luck and deeper in with the Outfit, a network of organised criminals whose attention he's tried hard to avoid. A risky job in a Brisbane bank and the return of a femme fatale add further complications to Wyatt's increasingly desperate situation and force him to decide who he is and who he cares about. ‘Disher writes with all the compassion of a well-placed bullet in the back of the head." J.R. Carroll ‘Real books, not junk fiction.' Booklist ‘Wyatt's as hard-boiled as a hubcap.' Weekend Australian

      5/5 - 2 ratings
      5/5 - 2 ratings

      Wyatt steals $ 50,000 and a sought-after piece of jewelry in a burglary of a politician's house. Wyatt snatches the cash easily enough. He bypasses the alarm system, eludes the cops, makes it safely back to his bolthole in Hobart. It's the diamond-studded Tiffany brooch - and perhaps the girl - that brings him undone. Now some very hard people want to put Wyatt and that brooch out of circulation. But this is Wyatt's game and Wyatt sets the rules - even if it means a reckoning somewhere far from home. Port Vila Blues is Wyatt's fifth heist. It's faster than ever, racing towards the inevitable confrontation on a clifftop above the deceptively calm waters of Port Vila Bay. "In a murky world where the cops are robbers, old-style crim Wyatt positively shines. Clear taut writing - not a word wasted." MARELE DAY, author of Lambs of God "Tough, violent, relentless and thoroughly convincing." STUART COUPE, author of The Roadies "To Disher's usual brisk pacing, add heaps of noir...a banquet for those who like it uncut and unsparing." KIRKUS REVIEWS

      WYATT'S BEEN AWAY. NOW HE'S BACK. The job's a classic jewel heist: quick, clean and simple. Except for one thing. Wyatt prefers to work alone, but this job belongs to Eddie Oberin and his very smart ex-wife Lydia. She has the inside information; Wyatt has the planning genius and meticulous preparation. What could possibly go wrong? Plenty. But when you cross Wyatt, you don't walk away. Taut plots, brilliant writing and relentless pace; plus an unforgettable cast, including the ever-elusive Wyatt himself: these are the hallmarks of Garry Disher's Wyatt series. 'Disher at his stylish best…Wicked and wonderful. Welcome back, Wyatt.' Sydney Morning Herald ‘I hope we don't have to wait another decade for the next instalment.' Age ‘Lean, cold and spare—right to the point and never a word too many.' Herald Sun ‘Australian noir writ large across Melbourne suburbia.' GQ ‘Disher's writing is short, dry and fast-paced.'
