A GRIPPING MYSTERY WITH A SUPERNATURAL TWIST
A MISSING CHILD, TASMANIAN TIGERS, A LOCAL TOWN WITH DARK SECRETS AND A RACE AGAINST TIME
"Redemption is born of guilt, and weighs heavy on even the strongest man." – Stephen King
In self-exile on the remote Australian island of Tasmania, Taylor Bridges is the only Ranger of an isolated National Park, its former logging town slowly drowning beneath the rising waters of the new dam project down-river. Struggling with the guilt of his own missing daughter on the mainland a year before, Taylor has since become a chronic sleepwalker.
So, when another little girl goes missing in his park a year to the day of his own child’s unsolved disappearance, Taylor’s sense of redemption finds him wading in over his head to find her. The only problem is, due to his sleep-walking, Taylor must first take himself off the growing list of suspects.
As the clues mount, he races against time and the rising lake waters to find the girl. But the town’s dark history unearths a trail of missing children over many years.

Об авторе
B. Michael Radburn is a self-professed bloke from the “wrong side of the tracks”, whose fall into writing offered an escape from the fatal attraction of drugs and alcohol. Wonderful high school teachers made him realise that writing, when shared, offered faith in one’s self. Writing from his farm in the hauntingly beautiful Southern Highlands of NSW, his work reflects both natural and supernatural environs. Described as “Ian Rankin meets Stephen King”, Radburn is the author of three full-length novels: The Crossing, Blackwater Moon and The Falls. Radburn loves his family, jamming out the blues and his motorcycle! He also loves giving back and inspiring others from all walk of life – his Harley Davidson chapter (Sydney HOG) works with Father Chris Riley’s Youth off the Streets program. Radburn uses these opportunities to talk to youth living rough in Sydney – offering reading and writing as “therapy” and sharing his own teenage experiences.
