Murder on the Murray
Murder on the Murray
When duty and death collide, The Devil takes the field.
Detective Mark Bannon earned his nickname the hard way as a crack shot in the South Australian outback who could track anything and never missed. Now confined to desk duty in Mildura after a misconduct inquiry, he's meant to stay behind a computer screen and away from fieldwork.
When a fitness instructor is found bludgeoned to death by the river, Detective Inspector Gerske needs Bannon's tracking skills and investigative instincts. As Bannon reads footprints in the dust and follows the evidence through the mallee scrub, he hunts a man who won't let go. A man willing to kill to keep what he's already lost.
With a dangerous suspect in his sights, and Professional Standards watching his every move. Bannon must prove he's more than the cold-blooded killer the rumours claim.
But when a call from Geelong shatters everything, Bannon discovers some fights can't be won with a rifle and some losses leave wounds no amount of justice can heal.
