About this listen
A small mining town. A brutal double murder. A killer among them.
DS Lucas Walker is out bush with his little sister Grace from Boston. They're fetching his cousin Blair, who's been mining boulder opal in Kanpara. The town is tense with rumours of a big opal find, and Blair wants out.
But Kanpara is in Channel Country, and when the three try to leave the next day, they find themselves completely cut off. A deluge far north has flooded the rivers overnight, making the roads impassable. Then Blair receives a shocking phone call.
Two bodies have been found, brutally murdered.
Trapped, with a killer in their midst, Walker is in a race to uncover the murderer before the water recedes. And when Blair is arrested by local police, the stakes couldn't be higher. With all his focus on clearing his cousin's name, will Walker see how much danger his sister is in before it's too late?
The third thrilling instalment in the gripping and bestselling DS Lucas Walker series is full of breathtaking twists and dark turns - for fans of Jane Harper, Cara Hunter and Chris Whitaker.

Pretty Good
I liked the previous ones in the series a bit better but this one was still enjoyable and well performed by the narrator. I found it took me a while to get into it but once it gets going it was very enjoyable, the last hour was a bit filler like but that usually ends up being standard in this genre of book. Overall I'd recommend it if you liked the previous entries in the series. If you have not heard/read any of the series I'd recommend starting from the beginning.

Brilliant!
The third book in the DS Walker Series by Patricia Wolf is another high octane thriller set in the Australian outback, this time amid opal miners. Walker's younger sister has arrived from the USA for a visit to get to know her mother's side of the family, and impetuously takes a short road trip with her brother to the opal mines to pick up her uncle, who's been unsuccessful in his attempts to hit the motherlode and just wants to go home. But of course, complications occur. As soon as they arrive in the tiny community, there's a brutal double homicide and naturally DS Walker takes the case. This audiobook is impeccably narrated by Adam Fitzgerald, who has quickly endeared himself to Wolf's readership as the voice of the series. Excellent pacing, riveting action, great dialogue, a wonderful sense of location, and honest character development contribute to netting this release an easy five stars. And again I learned something I didn't know, which is that Australia produces 95% of all the opals mined in the world.
