Description

Winner of the Ned Kelly Award

Justice is good. Vengeance is better.

"A new murder mystery star--Candice Fox may just be your new literary addiction."--Primo Life

"I fool myself that Eden has a heart--that she would at least have trouble killing me..."

Most homicide detective teams run on trust, loyalty, and the shared desire to put killers behind bars. Frank Bennett's partner, Eden Archer, thrives on darkness and danger. She has a rare talent for catching killers - but her idea of justice has little to do with courtrooms.

Now three girls are missing, and Eden is going undercover to a remote farm where the troubled go to hide and blood falls more often than rain. Frank's job is to keep an eye on his partner while she's there - but is it for Eden's protection, or to protect others from her? Walking a tightrope between duty and desperation, Frank confronts a threat from Eden's past--the sadistic crime lord Hades, who raised her. Suddenly, the hunter is the hunted. And a killer's vicious desires are about to be unleashed . . .

The breathtaking new thriller from the author of Hades, winner of the Ned Kelly Award for Best Debut Crime Novel, establishes Candice Fox as a suspense writer of international renown and undisputed power.

        Starred review from August 3, 2015
        In Australian author Fox’s nail-biting follow-up to Hades, Sydney homicide detective Eden Archer goes undercover at a prosperous farm that employs troubled types, in order to find out what happened to three missing young women, one of whom was sleeping with the farm’s owner, Jackie Rye. Meanwhile, crime lord Hades, who raised Eden, has asked her partner, Frank Bennett, to suss out information about a man who seems to be stalking him. The triple narrative is highly effective: Eden’s time on Jackie’s farm is dirty, wretched, and dangerous, though she maintains her cool under pressure, even when she must keep her darker proclivities in check; Frank, who resents Eden for having recently saved his life, is still reeling from a lover’s death; and revelations about Hades’s tragic past demonstrate that love takes many forms and motivations are complicated. Fox keeps her characters firmly in shades of gray, and it’s their complexity that drives this riveting thriller, right through to the gruesome, surprising finale. Agent: Gaby Naher, Naher Agency (Australia).

        Starred review from August 1, 2015

        Australian author Fox returns with another grim, gritty, fast-paced entry in the series featuring homicide detectives Frank Bennett and Eden Archer (after Hades). Frank and Eden are focused on a case involving three missing women whose only shared connection is a farm where miscreants go to hide. To track them down and determine who is responsible for their disappearance, Eden goes undercover as a runaway wife looking for refuge from an abusive ex-husband. While she gathers information and protects herself from the ire of resident degenerates, Frank keeps track of surveillance from the outside while also conducting his own investigation into another missing woman for Eden's crime lord father, Hades. VERDICT With multiple story lines and viewpoints, there is a lot to follow here, but each character adds depth and interest to an already absorbing plotline. Readers of the first installment will be especially interested to learn who and what made Hades the violent man he is today. Fox fantastically builds on her previous book, leaving a cliff-hanger that will have readers clamoring for the next series title.--Madeline Dahlman, Deerfield P.L., IL
