A teenage girl stumbles across the body of her classmate, Tim Pieters, hidden amongst the bushes. His family is devastated, the killer is never found.Eighteen years later, political pressure sees the murder investigation reopened. Detective Ella Marconi tracks down Georgie Riley, the student who found the body, and who is now a paramedic. Georgie seems to be telling the truth, so then why does Ella receive an anonymous phone call insisting that Georgie knows more? And is it mere coincidence that her ambulance partner, Freya, also went to the same high school?
Ella's confusion increases when Tim's mother, once so willing to get the police involved, suddenly turns her back on the investigation. Meanwhile, Tim's cousin, the MP whose influence reopened the case, can't seem to do enough to help.
The more Ella digs into the past, the more the buried secrets and lies are brought to light. Can she track down the killer before more people are hurt?

3.5 stars from me. Another quick moving instalment. I don't remember Detective Ella Marconi being shot, though! (In the prior book). I think the detective takes the back seat in these books, and I quite like that actually, as the author is an ex paramedic, and now registered nurse, her scenes on the job are very realistic. I'm always left feeling like I'm in safe hands. These stories are very local. I read about Pennant Hills, Pendle Hill and the Great Western Highway it's a bit of a treat. I'mlove this series. I have read it out of order and am now going back to read at least the next one again.
A rollicking police yarn featuring three women all dealing with traumatic pasts.Ella, the detective, is returning to work after being shot. She is given a cold case to solve.Georgie, a paramedic, has been relocated to Sydney for assessment after experiencing trauma from a drowning and the worse case of workforce bullying I've read about.Freya, Georgie's paramedic partner and assessor, has darker secrets from her school days.The various storylines come together. The women are all believable and
This is the third book in the Detective Ella Marconi series. It follows the same Point of View pattern as the others. One main POV from the police with Ella, and the other from the paramedics. I enjoyed both points of view equally this time. I must be tuning up my detective skills from reading the first three of these books all in a row, as I figured out "who done it" and why a lot earlier in this book than the others.
Ella Marconi returns to duty after recovering from being shot to a cold case. Tim Pieters was murdered as a teenager. His murder devastated his family and Howell shows how the wait for justice has compounded their suffering. She compares this with the effects Ella's determination to find the murderer and bring about justice has on her own family and relationships. As a teen Georgie found Tim's body and then lost her best friend. Watching the responders that day inspired her to become a
This is a really great read. The action and interaction between the main character and her work mate has you guessing immediately, a real hook into the story.Freya and Georgie had been friends at school and had lost touch with one another. This was a very unusual reunion. Both had secrets they were unwilling to share that dated back to their adolescence. Little did either of them know that an aspiring politician would raise a re-investigation of an unsolved murder that happened at their High
Wow, Howell is a masterful storyteller. Her writing is sharp, her action is clear, and her clever interweaving of conversation and clues with active, energetic scenes makes this book almost cinematic.I did have a hard time separating the multitude of characters - there are at least 6 point of view characters & every one of them comes with a full background of lovers/friends/family/enemies. Chapters are assigned arbitrarily across the characters (& the years) so that you never get more
