Sergeant Harper Quinn has returned to her sleepy hometown of Koorinda in search of a quieter life. Until she learns that the town’s once glittering waterpark is being reopened, on the shores of its famous Red Lake: the place her little brother vanished into thin air 30 years ago.

And then Harper receives a call: a body has been found at the park.

Once again, Harper finds her family at the centre of a shocking criminal investigation. This time, she is determined to find her own answers.

But when secrets run this deep, the truth can drag you under . . .

Red Lake is a thrilling and propulsive novel by Jason Summers, the bestselling Australian author of the Nick Vada series – known for its gripping plots, rich characters, and vivid depictions of the Australian outback. Born and raised in Deniliquin, a rural town in New South Wales, Jason draws on his deep connection to the bush to bring authenticity and atmosphere to his writing.

Thanks to Pan Macmillan, Writers SA has three copies of Red Lake to give away to lucky email subscribers.
