A MOTHER'S SECRETS CAN BE DEADLY

Winter is closing in on the Mornington Peninsula and the coastal community of Waterloo is looking for ways to keep warm. But things start to heat up for Detective Inspector Hal Challis when Janine McQuarrie is shot in a quiet country lane while her terrified daughter watches from the car.

But as the compromising details of the McQuarries' personal lives come to light, Challis and Detective Sergeant Ellen Destry are faced with another complication: the victim's father-in-law, who is also their Superintendent. It seems everyone has something to hide this winter. Can the truth be uncovered before the killer strikes again?

From the multiple Ned Kelly Award-winning author of Consolation and Day's End comes the third Hal Challis investigation, for readers of Jane Harper, Ian Rankin and Chris Hammer.

<b>Crisp plotting and strong emphasis on character</b>
s stories are tough-minded, character-rich, and strong on social conscience</b>
