When Claudia Valentine is hired to find a missing schoolgirl, she finds herself sinking into a world where, for many, rock bottom is only the beginning. Another superb murder mystery from the author of the bestselling Lambs of God.
From the author of the bestselling Lambs of God.
It is the start of a long, hot summer and Madalena Grimaldi has disappeared. Claudia is hired to find the missing schoolgirl but she's already working on a case - the death of Guy Valentine, her father.
As Claudia searches the streets, looking for the ghost of her derelict father and for the mysterious man who can lead her to Madalena, she finds herself sinking into a world where, for many, rock bottom is only the beginning.
'A marvel of subtle construction, Day's narrative has a lovely swoop, like a fall from grace, as Claudia confronts the inescapable, often destructive hold of the past. She creates a haunting atmosphere of restless searching and drifting, heightened by an underlying tone of dread.' - The Australian
'Tough, modern and thoughtful.' - Daily Telegraph, London
