About this listen
It's the early 1990s and Ruby 'Red' McCoy dreams about one day leaving her weatherboard house on the Central Coast of New South Wales, where her best friend, Stevie, is loose with the truth, and her dad, Sid, is always on the wrong side of the law. But wild, whip-smart Red can't stay out of trouble to save her life, and Sid's latest hustle is more harebrained than usual. Meanwhile, Sergeant Trevor Healy seems to have a vendetta against every generation of the McCoys.
Told in Ruby's vivid, inimitable voice, Red is part True Grit, part Blue Murder. It's a story of police persecution, dodgy deals, even dodgier cars and a family history that refuses to stay in the past.

'Filled with simmering tension, Red is both tragic and darkly comedic.' (Books+Publishing)
'This electrifying and unique revamp of the Ned Kelly myth will leave you breathless.' (Brendan Cowell, author of Plum)
