Reviews

[Liz Barr · Rating 2 out of 5]

Although the actual writing was smooth and clear, this badly needed some editing to fix up the structure and narrative flow. As it is, it read like a series of disjointed anecdotes, and doesn't in any way discuss the reasons or events around the growing significance of drugs in Australian organised crime.

This is ok - charts organised crime's moved into drugs culminating in Cabramatta. Interesting.
