Red Dirt Road by S R White
'A rising star of Australian crime fiction ' SUNDAY TIMES 'Gripping' GUARDIAN S. R. White is the real deal.' CHRIS HAMMER, author of SCRUBLANDS One outback town. Two puzzling murders. Fifty suspects. In Unamurra, a drought-scarred, one-pub town deep in the outback, two men are savagely murdered a month apart - their bodies elaborately arranged like angels. With no witnesses, no obvious motives and no apparent connections between the killings, how can lone police officer Detective Dana Russo - flown in from hundreds of kilometres away - possibly solve such a baffling, brutal case? Met with silence and suspicion from locals who live by their own set of rules, Dana must take over a stalled investigation with only a week to make progress. But with a murderer hiding in plain sight, and the parched days rapidly passing, Dana is determined to uncover the shocking secrets of this forgotten town - a place where anyone could be a killer. A gripping and vividly atmospheric story from the international bestseller, this is a searing story perfect for fans of Jane Harper, Chris Hammer and Garry Disher. Praise for S. R. White: 'A taut, beautifully observed slow-burner with an explosive finish' Peter May 'Original, compelling and highly recommended' Chris Hammer 'A fascinating case' SUNDAY TIMES 'It draws you in - and rewards with a truly powerful ending' HEAT 'This slow-burn novel catches light' THE SUN
