The Buried

A place to hide. A secret to bury.

The fourth thrilling novel in the bestselling Kalgoorlie series from beloved Australian crime writer Fleur McDonald.

A fiery car crash into a shop is only the beginning ...

When a car slams into a Kalgoorlie corner store, Detective Angie Sullivan hopes that it is a chance mishap. But as she starts an investigation, unsettled by the arrival of a new detective from Perth, she is drawn into something darker than it first appears.

The death of a local homeless man at the same time seems at first to be a tragic accident. But inconsistencies at the scene - the abandoned mineshaft where he lived - suggest a more sinister truth.

Angie and her team must grapple with secrets, betrayals and murder to unravel a mystery that stretches back across decades.
