12:46: Claire Bingleystands alone at a bus stop
12:47: Ted Conkaffey parks his car beside her
12:52: The girl is missing . . .
Six minutes in the wrong place at the wrong time—that’s all
it took to ruin Sydney detective Ted Conkaffey’s life.
Accused but not convicted of a brutal abduction, Ted is now
a free man—and public enemy number one. Maintaining his
innocence, he flees north to keep a low profile amidst the
steamy, croc-infested wetlands of Crimson Lake.
There, Ted’s lawyer introduces him to eccentric private
investigator Amanda Pharrell, herself a convicted murderer.
Not entirely convinced Amanda is a cold-blooded killer, Ted
agrees to help with her investigation, a case full of
deception and obsession, while secretly digging into her
troubled past. The residents of Crimson Lake are watching
the pair's every move . . . and the town offers no place to
hide.
Crimson Lake by Sydney-based, Ned Kelly award-winning
author Candice Fox is a thrilling contemporary crime novel
set in Queensland, Australia, perfect for readers of authors
like James Patterson, Harlan Coben, Lisa Gardner, and Tana
French.
