About this listen

Cold cases, murder, lies, and an unimaginable truth.

Sydney Detective August Shaw has spent the last decade of work solving cold cases. His work is his entire life, and he's convinced a string of unsolved cold-case suicides are linked to what could be Australia's worst ever serial killer. Problem is, no one believes him.

Senior Constable Jacob Porter loves his life in the small town of Tallowwood in northern New South Wales. He runs summer camps for the local Indigenous kids, plays rugby with his mates, has a close family, and he's the local LGBTQIA+ Liaison and the Indigenous Liaison Officer.

When human remains are found in the camping grounds at Tallowwood Reserve, Jake's new case turns out to be linked to August's cold cases, and Jake agrees they're not suicides at all. With Jacob now firmly in August's corner, they face one hurdle after another. Even when more remains are found, they can't seem to gain ground. But when the body of a fellow police officer turns up under the same MO, it can't be ignored anymore.

August and Jake must trace the untraceable before the killer takes his next victim or before he stops one of them, permanently.

Contains mature themes.

What a terrifyingly thought out story, yes there is love and romance and a hea but the bit in-between is terrifying and holds you holding your breath. Another amazing story that keeps you listening/reading and if you are listening it's well narrated by Anthony Ferguson.

This wouldn't be my usual read but I do love N.R so decided I'd give it a go and it was really interesting and kept me guessing. N.R writes amazing mm but the mystery on top of that was so good.

Such an interesting read

Oh how much i loved the character Jake, bossy, chatty and sweet. The boy next door but a boss in the bedroom. Just what August needs after whats happened to him. A great plot and guessing who the killer is. Well written.

Great listen

I really loved this book. I liked the main characters and their slow burn romance. I also enjoyed the murder mystery. It kept me guessing about who was involved in the murders. I thought the narration was very good as well.

Great book
