About the book
Broome detective Dan Clement has his hands full. He heads a small team in Australia’s north-west, policing a landmass larger than Western Europe and, right now, there’s a deluge of crime. His sergeant is beaten up, a woman is viciously assaulted, a hand tied to a post is all that is left in crocodile-infested waters.
The crimes seem to be related — until Clement looks again at another tourist death-by-crocodile eight years earlier. And with a free-spirited new lover claiming his attention, his private life isn’t a simple matter either. The stakes keep rising with the flood waters, reminding Clement of the adage ‘It never rains but it pours’. With a killer out there — somewhere — the time has arrived for Dan Clement to sink or swim
