Blood of the Sun by Dan Rabarts

Blood of the Sun by Dan Rabarts

There's been a gang massacre on Auckland's Freyberg Wharf. Body parts everywhere. And with the police's go-to laboratory out of action, it's up to scientific consult Pandora (Penny) Yee to sort through the mess. It's a hellish task, made worse by the earthquake swarms, the insufferable heat, and Cerberus' infernal barking. And what's got into her brother Matiu? Does it have something to do with the ship's consignment? Or is Matiu running with the gangs again? Because if he's involved, Penny will murder him herself.

Matiu can taste the chaos in the air. All they've done so far is keep it at bay, but now the streets are shuddering in protest. Things are pushing up against the veil like floodwaters. The coming days promise to be dark, but there's a bright side. He's got this flash new car, Penny's been too busy working to bug him, and Erica keeps scheduling their probation meetings over her lunch hour.

Join Penny and Matiu Yee for the family reunion to end all family reunions, as the struggle between light and dark erupts across Auckland's volcanic skyline.
