Harriet Black is a sex crimes Detective with the Sydney Police.  A young woman's body is found near the shore, and she is sure it is the Georges River Killer. When she arrives on scene, a lone wolf cop Tate "Tox" Barnes is primary.  Since she is sure of the killer she wants on the case.  However, partnering with Tox could be career suicide. She wants nothing to do with him, but he won't go away.The more they investigate it becomes clear this is not a victim of the Georges River Killer. A fellow cop is investigating a missing couple and their yacht.  When the two cases collide, Harry has to work even harder to prove she belongs and deserves a place on the task force. Harry is a great character, strong, independent and willing to work hard. Her background is touched upon and I hope will be explored further in the next book. Federay Holmes narrates her frustration and determination expertly. She nails the fast paced action and explosive ending with a twist that floors Harry.  Looking forward to Never, Never.
