The Emma Berry, Murray River series runs five books set along Australia’s iconic Murray River. Emma Berry is a country woman whose quiet rural life keeps being interrupted by crimes — from a suspicious gemstone find to a murder at a local mill to a body discovered in a woodpile.
Published between 2016 and 2023, the series uses the Australian bush landscape as more than backdrop. The river communities, farming life, and regional culture shape both the crimes and the characters who solve them.
