Winner of the Ned Kelly Award for Best Debut Crime Novel

Twenty years ago, two children were kidnapped and left for dead . . .

Homicide detective Frank Bennett has a new partner dark, beautiful, coldly efficient Eden Archer. Frank doesn t know what to make of her, or her brother Eric, who s also on the police force. Their methods are . . . unusual. But when a graveyard full of large steel toolboxes filled with body parts is found at the bottom of Sydney harbor, unusual is the least of their worries.

For Eden and Eric, the case holds chilling links to a scarred childhood and the murderer who raised them. For Frank, each clue brings him closer to something he s not sure he wants to face. But true evil goes beyond the bloody handiwork of a serial killer and no one is truly innocent . . .

At twenty, she turned her hand to academia, and taught high school through two undergraduate and two postgraduate degrees. She currently teaches writing at the University of Notre Dame in Sydney while undertaking a Ph.D. in literary censorship and terrorism. Candice’s first novel, Hades, won the Ned Kelly Award for Best Debut Crime Novel, given by the Australian Crime Writers Association.
