Winner of the 2016 Australian Crime Writers Association Ned Kelly Award for Best Fiction. Detective Inspector Daniel Clement is back in Broome, the tropical town where he grew up, licking his wounds from a busted marriage and struggling to be impressed by his new team of small-town, inexperienced cops. But stagnation and lethargy soon give way to a case with urgent purpose. On the edge of the desert, a man is found dead in a crocodile-infested watering hole. And he is only the first. The connection between the victims is elusive, but Clement must pursue it as a decades-old mystery begins to unravel and a monster cyclone brews on the horizon.

Eigentlich wollte Detective Daniel Clement nie nach Broome zurückkehren. Dank seiner Exfrau ist er aber nun doch wieder hier, im australischen Nirgendwo, 2.000 Kilometer entfernt von der nächsten Großstadt. Viel Zeit zum Eingewöhnen bleibt dem Detective nicht, denn in einem nahe gelegenen Wasserloch wird eine Leiche entdeckt. Der zu Lebzeiten unauffällige Mann wurde brutal umgebracht - übertötet , wie man in Polizeikreisen sagt. So etwas gab es in dieser abgelegenen Gegend noch nie. Als ein zweiter Mord geschieht, scheinbar ohne jede Verbindung zum ersten, ahnt Clement, dass ihm der schwierigste Fall seiner Karriere bevorsteht.
