When Emily's beautiful cousin Aspen goes missing somewhere in the Outback, no one seems to take it seriously, not even the police. After all, Aspen has a history of drug use and a string of broken relationships to her name. But Emily knows that her disappearance is totally out of character, so she books a flight to the Northern Territory to find her. Emily's search takes her south of Darwin to every road stop and tourist trap she can find, but the only person who turns up is the last person she expected to see, her ex-husband Ben. But there is a violent killer on the loose.

Even better than the first one
This is my favorite type of crime novel. A good mystery but also a bit of depth. The book touches on a lot of important topics like discrimination, addiction and depression. Also enjoyed the flawed but likable characters and the fact that the book doesn't reduce their issues to black and white.
This book is the second part in a series. Recommend that you read the first book 'Resurrection bay' before this one because there are storylines which develop over the series.
My only small criticism of the audio is at times I felt the narrator was over cooking it a bit.

Absolutely brilliant
I am totally hooked. The author is magnificent. A narrator can let a good book down. A narrator can bolster a bad book. To me, this book is a five star combination and has the best of both - writer and narrator. I simply could not stop listening. 5*****

Well-written but confusing detective novel
I quite enjoyed this new novel, but thought there were too many characters in it. I kept asking myself 'now who is so-and-so again?', or 'have we heard that name before?' Eventually I sorted most of the characters out, but could not explain the full denouement of the story, having just finished listening to it. I have often found crime writers expecting readers to work out a strand of story from a vague suggestion. I may be stupid, but half the time I don't get these clues. I found the continual sparring of the two brothers Caleb and Ant rather tiresome, but both are interesting characters.
Reader Lewis Fitzgerald has a good voice, and an intelligent approach. However, he has the habit of letting his voice trail off towards the end of many sentences, with the result that I was often struggling to hear what he was saying. I am going slightly deaf, but I did understand him very well most of the time.

Great story telling, with fantastic setting
loved the setting of Resurrection Bay and the cast of complex characters. As good as early Cliff Hardy

Annoying main character
The main character is meant to be frustratingly low on emotional intelligence… and he is. But it’s infuriating and makes him a poor detective which I don’t enjoy reading.
