Arthur Upfield wrote short fiction throughout his career, much of it for Australian periodicals. These stories were not collected during his lifetime and only appeared in book form decades later.
The collected stories feature the same Australian settings and sharp eye for the bush that characterize his novels. They give readers a look at Upfield working in shorter form, with tighter plots and the same dry, observant tone.
