This is the 5th novel in the John Bailey thriller series.
He is a Sydney based investigative journalist; a troubled former war correspondent prepared to put himself on the line to hunt for the truth. The story starts with a dramatic confrontation on a boat. Bailey is trying to solve two murders, ten years apart — unfinished business from his former flame, Sharon Dexter. But will it cost him is life? Detective Holly Sutton has been seconded to work with the New South Wales Homicide Squad to investigate the murder of Sydney socialite, Tottie Evans, who was found dead at the Palm Beach home of a millionaire property developer. Detective Holly Sutton soon meets Bailey and together they make a formidable duo.
This is a compulsive, fast paced thriller with plenty of action.
Note: Although there is swearing in the book, it didn’t put me off from reading the story.
4.5/5 Stars
