Detective Dave Burrows returns in another breathtaking tale of rural suspense from the bestselling author of Rising Dust.

A fire, a missing man and his dog send Dave and his partner Bob Holden south of Perth, to investigate. Leo Perry has
been missing for two days when they realise, he's probably not dead. In fact he's more likely to have left his life in
exchange for a new one. But why?
They find CCTV footage showing them that Leo is alive, only two days earlier, but then disaster strikes. A phone call from
the Meekatharra Police station changes everything that Dave and Bob already know about the case
