Author Information

"Detective-Sergeant Eddie Martin, nursing a cappuccino, is getting the lowdown on this Brett Sody character from the squad's number one; Detective Pete Young, who's nursing an organic chai latte with almond milk, extra turmeric and extra ginger. As usual, the lad's been thorough. He takes a big sip of the chai and gets his notebook out. DS: 'So, Pete. This Brett Sody, what's the story with him? What'd you find out?' DP: 'Righto; B.S. was born in St. Kilda, Melbourne, 1958. Family moved to Adelaide when he was 14. Been there ever since' DS: 'Got a record?' DP: 'Put out a few as a member of 'The Love Mussels' DS: 'Police record, Pete' DP: 'Zip' DS: 'Right, so he's one of these muso types' DP: 'Played in a lot of bands' DS: 'What's he do for a crust, this Sody character?'

DP: 'Wrote and produced A Journey Through the Past' DS: 'Bullshit, that's Neil Young, everybody knows that' DP: 'Not the Neil Young album, this was a stage play. Based on Neil & Me, by Scott Young' DS: 'Never heard of him' DP: 'Neil's dad' DS: 'Oh yeah, how'd it go? DP: 'Not bad, put on four sell-out shows; 2012 and 2013, Adelaide Fringe' DS: 'That it now?'

All right then, go on, what are they called?' DP: 'The Complete Dirty Works' DS: 'The Dirty Works? You in it?' DP: 'Among others' DS: 'Titles?' DP: 'Dirty Work, More Dirty Work, and Dirty Work Revisited' DS: 'I know I'll regret asking, but what are they about, Pete?' DP: 'Shall I read you his spiel?' DS: 'Go on, humour me' DP: 'An on-going satire about the struggle to get by, whatever you might be' DS: 'Spare me. Spoofs, are they?' DP: 'Sort of' DS: 'And the short story collection?
