Description

For Detective Matt Buchanan, the world is a pretty sick place. He has probably been in the job too long, for one thing. And then there's 14-year-old Samantha Coates, and the other unsolved murder cases. Those innocent girls he just can't get out of his head. When Buchanan pursues some fresh leads, it soon becomes clear he's on the trail of something big. As he pieces the horrific crimes together, Buchanan finds the very foundations of everything he once believed in start to crumble. He's forced across that grey line that separates right and wrong - into places so dark, even he might not make it back ...This is an astonishing first novel by ex-detective Nathan Blackwell that is guaranteed to grip you. It will reverberate in your head long after you've finished reading it.

Author Bio

Nathan Blackwell was raised on Auckland's North Shore and attended Westlake Boys High School before commencing a ten-year career in the New Zealand Police. Seven of those years were spent as a Detective in the Criminal Investigation Branch, where he was exposed to human nature at its strongest and bravest, but also at its most depraved and horrific. He investigated a wide range of cases including drug manufacture, child abuse, corruption, serious violence, rape and murder. Because some of his work was conducted covertly, Nathan chooses to hide his true identity.
