The Kalgoorlie Skimpy (A Feisty Ferreira Mystery Book 2)

How do you go about solving a murder when no one - including even the victim's wife - is telling the truth? For Brazilian geologist and financial analyst Feisty Ferreira, it means a journey to the rugged Australian outback, where mystery surrounds a massive new gold discovery.

There she meets a strange cast of characters that include a gold mining entrepreneur with a dark secret, a church pastor on a mission to stop the gold from being mined, and a young woman graduate student who serves beer in a pub in her underwear - one of the town's famous skimpies.

And in the background is a mysterious Chinese woman who seems to be trying to buy up the entire output of the new goldmine.

This novella (32,000 words) is the second in the Feisty Ferreira financial mystery series.


Praise for Martin Roth's thriller "Prophets and Loss":

"A thrilling ride that begins as a story of murder and revenge and ends as a reflection on loss and forgiveness....Fast-paced and edgy." - SydneyAnglicans.net

"Wow!....When "Prophets and Loss" arrived...I certainly wasn't expecting a meaty murder mystery cum terrorist plot. And when I realized that's what it was, I certainly wasn't then expecting Roth's Johnny Ravine mystery to deliver such a fabulous gospel message....This is a great book for a Christian or as a starter for a non-Christian. A fabulous surprise." - The Presbyterian Pulse

Praise for Martin Roth's thriller "Hot Rock Dreaming" (Australian Christian Book of the Year finalist):

"Roth is a Christian author and, although spiritual warfare is crucial to the plot, this book is still a murder mystery...Thought-provoking and an enjoyable read." - On Fire

"Highly readable...You will be both entertained and educated." - Journey
