The plane crashed forty years ago. The body inside died yesterday.
Detective Sergeant Kate Hayes — a female detective with a reputation for unearthing the truth — is called to a remote crash site near Coober Pedy. She expects wreckage and old bones. What she finds is a fresh corpse — a man in a 1980s RAAF flight suit, carrying ID for a pilot declared dead in 1984.
The plane’s been buried in red dust for decades. The victim was alive until now. Someone kept him that way.
As Kate digs into military records and classified files, she uncovers buried secrets tied to a Cold War programme the government never acknowledged — one that turned missing persons into test subjects. And someone is still protecting it.
In the Australian outback, where isolation breeds menace, this is outback noir at its most chilling.
Perfect for fans of Jane Harper, Chris Hammer, and Garry Disher.
A gripping police procedural set in the red heart of Australia.
Book 1 in the Kate Hayes Australian Outback Thriller series.
