The Lake Frome Monster, by Arthur Upfield

My neighborhood book club just finished a easy-read detective story from 1960s Australia, The Lake Frome Monster, by Arthur Upfield…. All about the Outback and ranching and First Nations People/aboriginal people… the detective is interesting… not the best detective mystery but lots of interesting local stuff and apparently most Australians are familiar with it… The language is quite dated, but presumably close to how white Australians thought/spoke…
