DEAD MANS CREEK - CHRIS HAMMER KARTONIERT (TB)

The blistering new thriller from Chris Hammer  'leader of Australian noir' and award-winning
author of the international bestsellers Scrublands  Silver  Trust and Opal Country.Old bones
sink - but secrets always rise to the surface. Newly-minted homicide detective Nell Buchanan
returns to her hometown  annoyed at being assigned a decades-old murder - a 'file and forget'.
But this is no ordinary cold case  her arrival provoking an unwelcome and threatening response
from the small-town community. As more bodies are discovered  and she begins to question how
well she truly knows those closest to her  Nell realises that finding the truth could prove
more difficult - and dangerous - than she'd ever expected. The nearer Nell comes to uncovering
the secrets of the past  the more treacherous her path becomes. Can she survive to root out the
truth  and what price will she have to pay for it? Praise for Chris Hammer: 'Classic Hammer. A
