'A well-balanced combination of extremely good characters, a very solid and intriguing plot, great atmosphere and some well-placed social commentary into the bargain, The Quarry tackles quite a bit and achieves all of it with considerable flair.'

Life on the margins just got
a whole lot scarier
Ranger Cal Nyx works alone in the vast NSW bush reserves. A coded message pulls her away from the quiet and solitude into a chaotic series of road trips.
With police involvement not an option and her femme interstate, Cal burns rubber up and down a lonely coastline, trying to intercept a relentless killer.
​
Will her skills, badass bravado and unique contacts be enough to bring a single-minded murderer out of the shadows?
​
Can she save the one and only person who truly gets her?
"...there is a nuanced, blue-collar grit to the writing
that perfectly compliments a subtle poetry..."

darkness of isolation and paranoia… fills your nostrils with eucalypt and sandstone and your heart with the loyalty of the dispossessed.'
