'Intense, insightful and impossible to put down' CAZ FREAR

When you go looking for a new start, make sure you don't find a nightmare instead.ย 


The Kane family, Lorcan, Naiyana and their young son, relocate from Perth to Kallayee, an abandoned mining town in the Great Victoria Desert to start over again, free from their chequered past.ย 
ย 
The town seems like the perfect getaway: Peaceful. Quiet. Remote. Somewhere they wonโ€™t be found.ย ย 
ย 
But life in Kallayee isnโ€™t quite as straightforward as they hope. There are noises in the earth, mysterious shadows and tracks in the dust, as if the town is coming back to life.ย 
ย 
But the family wonโ€™t leave. No one can talk sense into them.
ย 
And now, no one can talk to them at all.
ย 
Theyโ€™ve simply vanished.ย 
ย 
Now it's up to Detective Emmaline Taylor to find themโ€ฆ before itโ€™s too late.ย 

** Praiseย for Vanished **

โ€˜Delargy manages to turn the wide-open deserted Outback into something intensely claustrophobic and chillingโ€™ Russ Thomas

โ€˜Vanished is a gripping tale of greed and betrayal, burning with tension under a harsh Australian sunโ€™ Caz Frear

'Brilliantly atmosphericย . . . with a sense of menace that pervades every page' Kate Rhodes

'Powered through this in two sittings.ย Vanishedย ratchets up the tension page after page, playing out in a perfect isolated setting with such a claustrophobic feel, and so vividly painted you could step right in' Rob Scragg

'There is menace on every page of this atmospheric thriller. An abandoned mining town in the Australian outback is the desolate - almost surreal - backdrop to a tale of a disintegrating family. Perfect for fans of The Dry' Jo Furniss, author of the Amazon Charts best-seller All The Little Children
ย 

** Praise for 55 **

โ€˜Aย pulse-poundingย psycho-thriller . . . splendidly-engineered plot and a masterly sense of pace allied to a haunting background make forย a powerful debutโ€™ Crime Time

โ€˜Aย clever concept for this fast-moving debut, fleshed out with a sympathetic hero haunted by grim memoriesโ€™ย Sunday Timesย Crime Club

'Fabulously atmospheric,ย aย splendid slice of outback noirย for fans of Jane Harper. Theย intricately woven plotย sucks you into a hostile world and keeps you sweating until the final page'ย Adam Southward

'
A gripping race through the bleak Australian outback to find a missing family:ย Vanishedย captivated and intrigued me from page one'ย  Louisa De Lange

'If you liked The Dry you will like this'ย
