For Reasons of Their Own

By: Chris Stuart

Narrated by: Kirsty Gillmore

Can the past ever be left behind?

Ask a flawed detective, a former refugee and a government desperate to misuse a dead body to reshape Australia's security policy....

Melbourne is a city on the brink, suffering from arson-fed bush fires, searing heatwaves and the potential threat of terrorism. Detective Inspector Robbie Gray, falling foul of police bureaucracy, gets called to a body found lying in a rural swamp. When the nationality of the victim is revealed, ASIO takes over her investigation, and she is sidelined. Convinced they are misinterpreting the evidence, Robbie—along with a disenfranchised policeman—secretly digs for the truth...and discovers an entirely different motive, one that transcends international borders and exposes corruption in the humanitarian world.
