Summary
 In a beach paradise, an unspeakable crime is committed. The only witness lies in a coma, fighting for her life...

Australia's Gold Coast: On a stunningly beautiful stretch of coastline, a young mother is brutally murdered and her daughter, Gabby, is left in a coma, with her life hanging in the balance.

DS Lucas Walker has just arrived in Surfer's Paradise for some much-needed recovery after injuries sustained in his last investigation. But he is soon pulled into the dark twists and turns of this home invasion gone wrong, vowing to find the men responsible.

As Walker digs deeper into the dark underbelly of this shimmering city by the ocean, a case from his own past resurfaces, with deadly consequences.

And as eight-year-old Gabby, the sole witness to her mother's murder, wakes in her hospital bed, Walker is in a race against time to stop those responsible before they return to silence her forever...

Enjoyed this DS Walker book but thought it wrapped up too quickly. All loose ends tied. I thought the story was developing nicely but thought the ending would be more suspenseful

The ending was disappointing

I love finding novels based in the area I am visiting. I read this in a day while holidaying in Queensland. I loved Outback and was worried that Paradise wouldn't live up to they hype. It was epic! Patricia is a great writer. I really like DS Lucas Walker. Four stars as I couldn't find another character who I connected with. It was lovely to have Barbara back and maybe Gabny could return in a third book? Still gripping and great holiday read.

Highly Recommend - Great Aussie Crime Writer!
