Publisher Description

Mac Faraday is a man with a past living a quiet life in the country - until his beloved friend, Ned Lowey, is found hanged. Is it suicide? Faraday won't accept that and starts to ask questions. Why did Ned visit Kinross Hall, the local home for juvenile girls? Why did he keep press cuttings about the skeleton of a girl found in an old mine shaft? Who was the beaten girl found naked beside a lonely road?

As Faraday's search begins to uncover chilling secrets, he finds himself thrown back into the past, forced to confront again the dangers of his old life.

"Peter Temple is a cracking good read. I love the detailed nuances of small-town country life in Australia clashing with the horrible crime of the big cities as it leaks from the suburbs of Melbourne into the unassuming Victorian outback. It is dark, riveting stuff."

    " As usual for Temple a great read. Full of dry laconic humor but with a strong story line to boot. "

    " Fun, though aspects of his style - one typical of the genre - annoyed. Still, I suspect I will read more by Peter Temple. He writes well and plots competently and interestingly and credibly; all qualities which can be rate in this genre. "

    " This is my first Peter Temple novel. Needless to say, the plot is quite interesting and he doesn't waste time getting down to the it. It's crisp and he has well explored the Australian way of life. "

    " Liked this one almost as much as The Broken Shore. he's got parts of rural Victoria nailed; climatically, socially and in terms of its yearning for Melbourne. "

    " Not as gritty and tight as his more recent crime novels, but who cares. I don't read Peter Temple for the 'mystery'; I read Peter Temple for the fascinating characters and the intriguing back story. Has this guy ever written a "bad" book ? Love him! "

    " Great protagonist and well developed plot. Only downside is that you really need to know Australian slang to get all of the references . "

    " Great book. Loved the characterisation and the Aussieness of it. Mac, the protagonist's voice is one of a kind. Highly recommended as a crime thriller. "
