The Echo of Others By S.D. Rowell , Simon Rowell

A vigilante with a message. The outsider detective. A cold case they both want solved.

Rachael Schlank is a straight-talking detective who’s always felt like a fish out of water, bouncing between departments over the years. Now she’s finally found a home in Victoria Police’s Cold Case Unit.

When a vigilante starts targeting hunters, leaving clues about a long-ago cold case, Rachael is asked to join a task force investigating the crimes … along with a former colleague, whose dangerous temper has already made an impact on her life.

In order to crack the case, Rachael finds herself challenging her own ideas about justice and morality. And before it’s over, she must also face down her own history, risking it all to solve the case…

The past is never over. She will make sure of it.

Longlisted for the Ned Kelly Awards 2018.
