“Two stories align in the most clever way and the lead to this finale will bring a chill to your bloodflow…
Australian author Trent Dalton is an artist that paints with words.
An exploration of an aged and weathered marriage sits alongside a criminal investigation after investigative journalist Noah Cork receives cryptic messages in his front letterbox. This information leads to the grim discovery of a body. A cold case is re-opened.
A series of storms in suburban Brisbane uncovers more evidence for Noah’s investigation and echoes a storm in Noah’s own marriage – his wife’s sudden muteness and his own hidden secrets.
Clever crafting of cold cases, missing people and startling revelations are all sewn together for the perfect tense and pacy ending that you will need time set aside to devour in one sitting.
