A detective investigates a seemingly impossible crime When Jennifer Parkes's husband, Brian, disappears one rainy night, her world is torn apart. After years of fruitless searching, she gives up hope and gets on with her life - raising her daughter and building a successful fashion brand. Yet eighteen years later, out of the blue, Brian's body is found right around the corner. He looks no older and he's wearing the same rain-soaked clothes, although the weather has been fine for weeks. It's as if he's just stepped out of the past and been hit by a car. Indefatigable detective Neil Lachlan, recently moved to homicide, takes on the case. But he has his hands full with the investigation of a serial killer targeting joggers on Sydney's streets. Could Brian's disappearance all those years ago be the key to catching him? Or will Jennifer and her daughter's need to know the truth add a cruel twist to the story?

Autorenporträt
Born in Sydney, Australia, Iain worked for many years in print media production for newspapers, magazines, and direct marketing agencies, and as a writer for small business websites. He has written fiction from a young age. Somewhere in his house, there is still a framed copy of his first published story, a '5-minute fiction' tale in Woman's Day. Since then, he has never looked back, having short stories published in various magazines worldwide, and now his suspenseful thrillers and mysteries. Commenting on what influenced his writing journey, he describes a moment that has stayed with him. On his first day in his first job, as a teenage messenger boy, he left the office via a back exit into a narrow alleyway where he saw the body of a man crumpled on the ground. He had just jumped out of a window from the neighbouring building. The paramedics were already approaching. When Iain returned an hour or so later, the body and the surrounding activity were gone, there was just a chalk outline on the ground where the body had been. Ever since he has wondered who that man was, what led him to suicide, and what his future might have been had he lived. Decades later, that chalk outline is often on the writer's mind when telling the stories of his characters' lives. Authors who have inspired Iain include Daphne Du Maurier, Ken Follett, Michael Crichton, Tess Gerritsen, Michael Robotham, and Harlen Coben. He lives on the New South Wales coast with his wife.
