Burrabooka Outback Australia - Tom Penna - Bog

4: Body CountThe Ted Burns identity is forgone and our man returns to being Tom Roach. Roach finds himself in hospital after his beating at the hands of the Markellos gang. The gang is set up by law enforcement and arrests yield in dawn raids. For now Roach is safe from the gang's reach - but is he really?The Australian Federal Police now have him under their control in an 'off the books' capacity and his life complicates even further. Roach recovers on Terangie Station and then in Burrabooka but his peace is havocked when a crime gang send a message to Booka locals. A house is bombed and shots are fired and Roach is on the run again.The gang also plan an attack on Terangie Downs that is foiled with murderous consequences for the bad guys - but who really are the bad guys?Roach wins that battle and returns to Adelaide with instructions to drive the American hit team to their next mission site - the next execution is planned.He defaults the mission and then travels on his own. The Americans are not happy about and a second team of rouge mercenaries hunt for him. He hides out in the mountains where his survival and endurance is tested in the wild. There, for now he is safe. But is he? As the body count mounts Tom Roach aka Ted Burns works to keep a step ahead. But he is a wanted man on many fronts and his life is at risk on a daily basis.Cheers Tom Penna
