Description
‘A wounded cop recovering from life-threatening injuries in the Victorian coastal countryside gets drawn in to the investigation of a murder . . . The writing is tight, the plot gallops along, the atmosphere is intermittently spooky with truly chilling moments, the characterisation is masterful.’ Kerry Goldsworthy, Australian ‘Book of the Year’ ‘Might well be the best crime novel published in this country.’ Graeme Blundell, Australian ‘One of our best novelists full stop’ Sun-Herald ‘Temple understands the tawdrieness of evil. Decadence? Glamour? Don’t be funny’ Australian Financial Review
