A REMOTE HOTEL. FIVE GUESTS. ONE MURDER.

A rising star of Australian crime fiction ' SUNDAY TIMES

'S. R. White is the real deal.' CHRIS HAMMER, author of SCRUBLANDS

During a broiling heatwave, the inner circle of a high-profile charity attend a critical meeting at White Ash Ridge, a small hotel nestled in the Australian wilderness.
As the temperature rises, a body is found lying in the thick bush, bludgeoned to death.
One of the four remaining guests is a murderer - but who, and why, is a mystery.

Detective Dana Russo knows the national spotlight will be sharply focused on the case.
The charity was formed when the founders' teenage son was killed after intervening in a vicious assault - sparking public outrage and a damning verdict on the police investigation.

But under huge pressure and with few clues - plus suspects who instinctively distrust the police - how can Dana unravel the truth?

A good long listen, good to have on while doing chores. Excellent narration, though one character had a very abrasive voice (there were lots of female characters so I understand that the narrator had to distinguish them somehow). Overall pretty good.

I love the Australian crime genre but this series, ( I have read one other in the series) and this book in particular, are average to say the least. None of the characters here are fully fleshed out, there is a cardboard quality to all of them. The long monologues where one subject is beaten to death, the long forced explanation from the detective at the denoument, the various names that sound similar - "Raine" and Dana, Mila and Milo - are just irritating. There was a flash of real inspiration when the video of the character Mila being attacked by thugs entered the plot but nothing else really grabbed the attention. There are many more female characters than male so I wonder if the writer is just not very good at writing women.
I also found the narrator to have a harsh voice and a couple of her characters' voices were gratingly awful.
This was a waste of a credit for me.

Dull
