Nick Chester is working as a sergeant for the Havelock police in the Marlborough Sound, at the top of NZ's South Island. If the river isn't flooded and the land hasn't slipped, it's paradise - unless you are also hiding from a ruthless man with a grudge, in which case, remote beauty has its own kind of danger. In the last couple of weeks, two local boys have vanished. Their bodies are found, but the Pied Piper is still at large. Marlborough Man is a gripping story about the hunter and the hunted, and about what happens when evil takes hold of a small town.
Alan Carter was born in Sunderland, UK. He immigrated to Australia in 1991 and divides his time between his house near the beach in Fremantle and a hobby farm up a remote valley in New Zealand. He sometimes works as a television documentary director. In his spare time he follows a black line up and down the local swimming pool. He is the author of three Cato Kwong novels - Prime Cut, Getting Warmer and Bad Seed.
