Double Fault

Bol

It's summer in Melbourne, the city is sweltering, and the first Grand Slam of the tennis season is in full swing. While fans cheer courtside, Detective Senior Sergeant Brendan O'Leary is far from the action, knee-deep in a chilling case that starts with two bodies buried on a derelict farm by the Loddon River. When a third is found in an abandoned mine shaft, O'Leary knows this is no coincidence-but proving it in the scorching heat and dusty silence of the countryside is another matter.Back in the city, Detective Constable Angela Micelli is pulled into a high-profile death: a tennis agent found dead in a luxury hotel. The deeper she digs, the more sinister the shadows become, revealing ties to Russian and Estonian organised crime syndicates whose reach extends well beyond the courts of Melbourne.With bodies piling up and pressure mounting, O'Leary and Micelli must race to connect two seemingly separate cases-before the killers disappear into the heat haze.A gritty, gripping crime thriller where sunburnt Australia meets the icy heart of international crime.
