From Fleur McDonald comes a gripping instalment in the Detective Dave Burrows series—a tense rural crime novel set in the unforgiving landscapes of outback Australia.

Detective Dave Burrows is no stranger to danger, but this time the stakes are higher than ever. When a case takes him into remote territory, what begins as a routine investigation quickly escalates into something far more serious—where isolation, pressure, and hidden threats collide.

As the situation intensifies, Dave must rely on instinct, experience, and resilience to stay ahead. But in a world where help is far away and the truth is buried deep, every decision carries consequences—and not all of them can be undone.
