'The ghost of Traumas Past.'
This is an 18 plus, Mature Only story. If you are EASILY OFFENDED or under age, DO NOT READ ON. This story deals with real life, dark topics.
When 18-year-old aspiring nurse Elizabeth Harrison vanishes from an isolated bush track in Victoria's rugged High Country, the clock begins to tick toward an unthinkable fate. The only clue: a taunting phone call to her uncle, Detective Sergeant John Raymond, from a monster known only as "Old Mate"-a man who has haunted the Raymond family for decades.
Desperate, John calls in the one man who can navigate the scum of the underworld: the brilliant and charismatic Senior Sergeant Sidney Western.
Impeccably dressed and controlled, Sidney is the veteran of Major Crimes, but beneath the charcoal suit lies a survivor who knows exactly what it feels like to be prey.
As a catastrophic storm races toward the Moon Shine Forest, threatening to wash away every
forensic trace, the search turns into a psychological war. With the predator hiding in plain sight and Elizabeth headed for the gritty docks of Melbourne, the two investigators must break every rule to find her.
Will Sidney's facade of control hold? Or will the ghosts of 1968 finally drag him under?
