Story
Nash Rankin is a disgraced cop trying to escape his past—his career was destroyed when he chose to take justice into his own hands. Now he's living a quiet life in a small town caring for the local wildlife and trying to stay away from trouble. Jesse Redpath has a new job in a new town, Satellite—the stormy weather that greets her first few days on the new beat seems like a sign for what's to come. A local has died in what seems like an accident, but Jessie isn't so sure that ‘accident' wasn't planned. All evidence seems to point to Nash, but Jesse's not sure about that either.

Detective Dave Burrows has longed for the top job in the Stock Squad but never thought he'd be acting in that role while his partner and best mate, Detective Bob Holden, is treated for melanoma. Bob is keen to get back on the road and Dave can't wait to go bush either, expecting the trip will be much the same as usual. But the trip doesn't play out that way.

Publisher's Summary
Two bodies. One long hot summer. A town that will never be the same.
When Adam Lawson’s wrecked car is found a kilometre from Daisy Baker’s body, the whole town assumes it’s an open-and-shut case. But Jesse Redpath isn’t from Canticle Creek. Where she comes from, the truth often hides in plain sight, but only if you know where to look.
When Jesse starts to ask awkward questions, she uncovers a town full of contradictions and a cast of characters with dark pasts, secrets to hide and even more to lose.
As the temperature soars, and the ground bakes, the wilderness surrounding Canticle Creek becomes a powderkeg waiting to explode.
All it needs is one spark.
More from the same

Australian murder at its best
I came at the book with trepidation but it turned out to be a great murder mystery, well told. It was impossible to guess the ending. Well worth a read.

Not your average Australian Murder Mystery
Wow...I am a new fan of Adrian Hyland. Great Australian story coming from a different angle.
Love the protagonist being a woman, and how she is such a strong female role.
I thought Author Adrian was a female (sorry about that), but the character Jess was developed to perfection, I just presumed the author was a woman.
The description of the environment made it so easy to build a picture and visualise in my minds eye. It would make a great TV series/movie.
I'm now listening to Adrian Hyland's Wiregrass, which is shaping up to be just as good.
Hope there is another novel in this series soon!!!

Very Enjoyable
I struggled to get into it at first, but as the story and characters develop it turns into a good yarn. Give it a go
