Storm Season

Detective Bec Whitfield thought she'd found paradise in tropical Mission Beach-and maybe even love with charming local developer Jake Morrison. But when a three-year-old girl vanishes from a bush track and construction work in the town centre uncovers skeletal remains in concrete, Bec finds herself leading two investigations that will test everything she believes about her new home.When Senior Detective Todd Davenport arrives to assist, his approach forces Bec to examine details she's missed-including questions about people she trusts. Is Jake protecting someone, or is Bec's judgment clouded by feelings she shouldn't have let develop?With a cyclone bearing down and evacuation orders imminent, Bec must untangle decades of secrets while a child's life hangs in the balance. In a small town where everyone knows everyone, the most dangerous person is often the one you never suspect.Perfect for fans of Jane Harper and Candice Fox. Annie Seaton lives on the edge of the South Pacific Ocean on the east coast of Australia with her own hero of many years. Their two children are now grown up and married, and three beautiful grandchildren have arrived. They share their home with Toby, the naughtiest dog in the universe, and two white cats. When Annie is not writing she can be found in her garden or walking on the beach...or most likely on her deck overlooking the ocean, camera in hand as the sun sets. Each winter, Annie and her husband leave the beach to roam the remote areas of Australia for story ideas and research. Readers can contact Annie through her website annieseaton.net or find her on Face book, Twitter and Instagram.Annie loves to hear from readers.
