At five, Molly Walker was placed in witness protection after seeing her birth mother Sammi's murder. Twenty years later, everyone assumes the threat has passed.

Then Molly's adoptive parents are killed in a car accident, on the same day the police commissioner announces the re-investigation of Constable Sammi Walker's murder. Coincidence or something more sinister?

Set against the backdrop of the blood-red soil of Kalgoorlie, long-buried lies continue to surface, while someone is becoming increasingly desperate to keep them hidden.

Bestselling rural crime author Fleur McDonald has always had a strong affinity with the land and the vast Australian outback. With 24 fiction novels and more than 850,000 book sales to her name, Fleur has built a strong following of loyal readers.
