En savoir plus sur le livre

P.M. Newton's debut thriller is a compelling blend of authenticity and gripping narrative. Set in Sydney, 1992, it follows Nhu "Ned" Kelly, a young detective navigating a police force in turmoil. With the infamous Roger Rogerson under scrutiny, old practices are fading, and Ned's unique background makes her an outsider. When two bodies are discovered in a building's foundations, she is pulled into a web of historical rivalries and secrets. As she investigates the identities of the deceased and their connection to the police, she uncovers truths that threaten to unravel both the force and her own family's past. Newton, a former member of the New South Wales Police Force, crafts a narrative that is both a thrilling crime story and a vivid portrayal of Sydney's recent history. The writing is sharp, with dialogue that resonates with authenticity, establishing Newton as a notable new voice in Australian crime fiction. Critics praise the novel for its layered storytelling, powerful characters, and evocative descriptions of Sydney, positioning it as a standout debut in the genre.
