A landscape to die for … The next compelling mystery set in the wild outback town of Kalgoorlie, from the bestselling author of The Prospect

‘This land is millions of years old and has held secrets that we are able to uncover to this very day, yet the same land seems to have swallowed Max without a trace.’

When a teenage boy goes missing in the bush outside Kalgoorlie, the search for him will uncover the mystery of a series of lost foster children, presumed runaways. Two women new to town – a cop and a radio host – are determined to find the truth.
