Tense, smart and darkly funny, it’s the kind of suspense novel that rewards readers who love morally messy characters and a plot that keeps shifting under your feet.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003eDisgraced detective Ted Conkaffey flees south-east Queensland after a devastating accusation destroys his life, landing in the oddball town of Crimson Lake. There he’s reluctantly pulled into a missing-person case by private investigator Amanda Pharrell—brilliant, blunt, and infamous for her own violent past. Their search for a vanished author opens up a web of local grudges, hidden histories and watchful neighbours.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003ePerfect for fans of twisty mysteries, outback noir, and character-driven psychological suspense—especially if you enjoyed Troppo.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003e\u003co:p\u003e \u003c\/o:p\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp class=\"cs3388614\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"cs95B300B\"\u003eStep into Crimson Lake and see how long you can hold your breath.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Dear Village","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52276687864084,"sku":"9781761347276","price":24.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0679\/6460\/0596\/files\/9781761347276_1.jpg?v=1774593002","url":"https:\/\/dearvillage.com.au\/products\/crimson-lake","provider":"Dear Village","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
