When a young man is king hit on the streets of Kings Cross by a drunken reveller the aftermath exposes failures in the legal system that prompt an unscrupulous group of men to implement their own model of justice. Set in the suburbs of twenty-first century Sydney ‘Dog Acts’ pits the hopes of youth against the fragility of life. It asks questions about vengeance and forgiveness in the context of the city’s loss of community. Modern Australia emerges as a nation without a heart and ripe for reconfiguration in the hands of entities with the determination to implement their own distorted visions.

David Morisset is an Australian writer who has published several novels, as well as short stories and poetry. He is a former diplomat and economist. His poem ‘Persian Princess’ was commended in the John Shaw Neilson Poetry Award (Fellowship of Australian Writers National Literary Awards 2009). David lives and writes near a quiet beach on the Central Coast of New South Wales.
