It was the fourth story collection, and the sixteenth book, featuring the author's continuing character Cliff Hardy.[2]
Critical reception
Stan Barney, in a short review in The Canberra Times, wrote the collection "shows that Peter Corris is equally at home with the short story as he is with the novel... Well-plotted so it is not easy to guess the twist in the tail, and well-written".[3]
Publishing history
After the collection's initial publication in Australia in 1993[1] it was reprinted by Allen and Unwin in 2014.[4]
