The second Catrin Sayer mystery. A retired clergyman collapses in the Kelvingrove Museum in Glasgow, right in front of the painting by Salvador Dali called ‘Christ of Saint John of the Cross’. It is thought to be a heart attack until the angina medication he took at the onset of the attack was discovered to be a placebo; it was totally ineffective. Meanwhile, a drug 'baron' in Glasgow searches out the services of a friend of his late father, a man with prior convictions for art forgery; he has a job for him. Detective Constable Catrin Sayer is now nearly a year into her assignment with the Art Crime Unit at New Scotland Yard. The journey north to Glasgow on a new case is tied to both the death of the clergyman and a rumour of theft or fraud associated with paintings by a group of artists known as ‘The Scottish Colourists’.
AUSTRALIAN THEATRE in the 1990s is a vigorous enterprise displaying the energies and contradictions of a multicultural society. This collection of essays by leading scholars of Australian theatre and drama surveys the emergence and directions of the new theatrical energies which have challenged or redefined the Australian 'mainstream': Aboriginal, multicultural, Asian-Australian, women's, gay and lesbian, community and young people's theatre; and charts the exciting growth of physical theatre. The contributors assess the impact of evolving funding and industrial priorities, and examine the theoretical and cultural debates surrounding Australian playwriting and theatre-making from the 1970s Vietnam dramas to the postmodern present.
The Sixth Catrin Sayer Mystery. Detective Inspector Catrin Sayer now leads art investigation within the prestigious Art and Antiques Unit of the London Metropolitan Police. Her team is suddenly assigned to assist Trident, the organized crime unit, at a crime scene in East London where a valuable painting has been discovered. It is a suspicious death; a young woman has fallen from the balcony of an apartment owned by a gang leader. The painting has links to a drug gang in Glasgow where, some years earlier, Sayer was part of an investigation that led to the imprisonment of its leaders. Now she is sent to Scotland to conduct interviews of the gang leader and his accountant, with instructions to ‘stir them up a bit’. She does; and it has surprising consequences.
