Daniel Cordeaux

Set in a 1977 Adelaide, a weathered detective's connection with his daughter and inner self comes into the firing line during an intense legal case, causing him to come to terms with his priorities in life. Based on the feature film screenplay 'The Man with the Blue Beret'.

Frances O'Brian, Head Librarian, is having a hellish time of it. And for once it's not all of her making. Frances' mother, suffering from both dementia and a really horrible personality, lands on the O'Brien doorstep. Adding to her woes, morale at the Middleton Interactive Learning Centre is at a new all time low. In order to stay open, the library is forced to run as a business and return an annual profit. As the staff has a hard enough time enforcing the return of a book, this latest initiative could spell the end of the library.
