We are SO excited to introduce our June Fiction Book of the Month and give our QBD Blog readers a sneak peak into this breath-taking new crime novel “Melaleuca” by Angie Faye Martin.
ABOUT THE BOOK:
Renee Taylor is planning to flee back to Brisbane and leave her remote hometown as soon as possible, until a woman’s body is discovered, brutally murdered. Leading the investigation, Renee uncovers a mysterious link to the disappearance of two young women thirty years earlier. As the case unfurls, she discovers intergenerational prejudices, institutionalised racism, and deep exploitation as the sinister and bitter truths about the town and its people begin to unwind and pollute the present.
Set against the fierce and unforgiving outback of Queensland, Angie skilfully weaves a harrowing mystery, acrid secrets of corruption, and unflinching authenticity in her prose. “Melaleuca” is a must-read this June.
