It's 1947; a small country town. The naked body of a young woman - with a cross cut into her forehead - is found on a bull ants' nest in the bush Detective Harry Taylor is suffering from malaria and a bullet wound from his time behind enemy lines with Z Force. He is sent to investigate the murder in a place he knows well. The expectations are high, but Harry faces a town divided. He clashes with police, church and legal authorities as he confronts racism, bigotry, disability and abuse. Murder is rare; opinions are not. Nobody has the answer. With some helpful friends, it's up to Harry to solve the case. If you enjoyed Jane Harper's book, The Dry, you'll love Harry.
