SMALL CRIMES CAN HAVE TERRIBLE CONSEQUENCES
Winter in Tiverton, and Constаble Paul Hirschhausen has a snowdropper on his patch. Someone is stealing women´s underwear, and Hirsch knows how that kind of crime can escalate. Then two calls come in: a child abandoned in a caravan, filthy and starving. And a man on the rampage at the primary school.
Hirsch knows how things like that can escalate, too. An absent father who isn´t where he´s supposed to be; another who flees to the back country armed with a rifle. Families under pressure can break. But it´s always a surprise when the killing starts.
A hugely atmospheric police procedural set in the dust of the Australian outback. Perfect for readers of Jane Harper, Chris Hammer and Dervla McTiernan.
