Meet the Author - Michael Trant

Michael Trant is a WA country boy turned successful writer. He grew up on the family farm at Eneabba, before moving to Geraldton then out to Yalgoo before heading to Perth. Michael is known writing fast-paced novels set in rural Australia. His debut novel Ridgeview Station was inspired by his time on Gabyon Station.  Come along and hear Michael discuss his latest rural thriller, Blood and Gold.

Blood and Gold

Terry Drage is not the first amateur gold prospector to rock up to the Murchison Hotel, brag about an exciting discovery – and then vanish into thin air. But Gabe Ahern is determined he will be the last.

No one knows the land around the remote Western Australian town of Cue better than Gabe – a wild dog trapper who's in his element in the bush. Feeling responsible for his friend’s fate, he races there to join the search.

But it won’t be an easy ride. For a start the local cops seem sure Terry going missing is nothing more than a tragic accident. It’s down to Gabe to spot the sinister pattern of disappearances and deaths in recent years.

Plus, the last time Gabe was in his old hometown it was under the very worst of circumstances. And now, to stop a killer, he’ll need to confront the ghosts from his past.
