[Wild Crimes 01] • Poison Bay

**"The Maori call this place Ata Whenua-Shadow Land."**

Television reporter Callie Brown likes safe places with good coffee. But she joins friends from the past on a trek into New Zealand's most brutal wilderness, in the hope of healing a broken heart. What she doesn't know is that someone wants them all dead.

Lost in every sense of the word, the hikers' primal instincts erupt. Surrounded by people who have harbored secrets for a decade, Callie must choose the right ally if she doesn't want to be the next to die...

Old loves and old rivalries reignite as the group begins to disintegrate. They were told their expedition would establish an alternative to the famed Milford Track. By the time they understand that its true purpose is much more sinister, it is too late. Far from the reach of outside help, they must face a deadly wilderness and a murderer alone.

*“A breathtakingly fast-paced and original eco/wilderness thriller.” Karin Cox

"If you want to go to sleep early, don't start this book at night; you'll find yourself avidly turning the next page in the small hours wondering who is next and whether it will be the killer, or the beautiful, savage wilderness of New Zealand's Fjordland that will be the cause of the next death."
