Neuware - The Burning BayShadows of the Sounds, Book TwoA house is burning across the water in the Marlborough Sounds.Someone was heard screaming inside.And before the flames appeared, a boat was heard leaving the bay.When Senior Constable Jim Storey is called to a waterfront property in Te Mahia Bay in the middle of the night, the fire is already consuming most of the house.Then firefighters find a dead man outside.He is not the owner.The woman who owns the property is hundreds of kilometres away, her husband has disappeared, and someone else may have been staying at the house in secret.What first appears to be a tragic fire quickly becomes something much harder to explain.Alongside Constable Mia Rangi, Jim begins pulling apart the movements of the people connected to the property. Old relationships surface. Stories begin to change. And the isolated bays and waterways that make the Marlborough Sounds so beautiful also provide the perfect places for people to disappear.Someone knows what happened in Te Mahia Bay.Someone left before the fire took hold.And Jim is increasingly certain the flames were meant to destroy more than a house.Set among the remote properties, dark water and close knit communities of New Zealand's Marlborough Sounds, The Burning Bay is an atmospheric crime mystery filled with believable characters, dry Kiwi humour and a case where almost everyone appears to be hiding something.Book Two in the Shadows of the Sounds mystery series.…

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Absolutely. For the Amazon KDP description, I'd use something along these lines: Book DescriptionThe Marlborough Sounds are beautiful enough to hide almost anything.When a woman's body is recovered from the water near Havelock, Senior Constable Jim Storey expects a difficult investigation. What he doesn't expect is for the trail to lead back more than twenty years, to the disappearance of a young girl named Emily Fleming, and to people who have spent decades making sure the truth stays buried.Then twelve year old Sophie Marsh disappears.A photograph proves Sophie is alive, but the message accompanying it leaves Jim and Mia with an impossible choice: stop asking questions about Emily, or risk another child becoming part of the Sounds' history.As old loyalties fracture and long held secrets surface, the investigation closes in on Graham Pike, a man whose influence reaches further into the past than anyone realised. But the darkest truth is not simply who was responsible. It is what happened on the water all those years ago, who could have stopped it, and why so many people chose silence instead.Set against the isolated bays, hidden tracks and unforgiving waters of New Zealand's Marlborough Sounds, Book Two of the Shadows of the Sounds series is an atmospheric crime mystery about guilt, courage, family and the terrible cost of protecting a lie.Because some secrets are buried.Others are simply waiting for someone to start asking the right questions.
