About this audiobook
A disgraced TV news reporter returns to her violent hometown to investigate a series of deadly shark attacks, in this nail-biting suspense novel from the author of The Stranger Upstairs.
Something is lurking below the surface . . . and it’s hungry
With her polished persona as a morning show co-host, Minnow Greenwood seems to have it all. But behind the camera, it’s all a lie, and something’s about to break.
When a public meltdown shatters her façade, Minnow flees back to Kangaroo Bay—the grimy fishing town on Victoria’s coast where locals vanish and something deadly hunts in the water.
On her first night back, a horrifying shark attack rocks the town, adding another body to the unsettling list of deaths and disappearances.
When a former colleague arrives to investigate, she reluctantly teams up with him to find answers for herself and keep her own dark secrets buried.
But with danger closing in, Minnow must unearth her town’s deadly past—and face the darkness festering inside her—before she’s the next to disappear . . .
