The Lineup

A$35 · Offered by Harry Hartog Rare Books

Point Break meets Rear Window in this heart-pounding, suspenseful thriller set in Byron Bay. A killer on the loose. A surfer out of his depth ... Bo Curren was once a champion surfer. Now, at twenty-eight, he's all washed up - unable even to set foot near the ocean. Instead, he spends his days alone in his apartment, drowning his sorrows in whiskey and watching surfers on his laptop via the 24-hour surf webcam. Then one day he sees something he shouldn't. A camera trained on a deserted Byron Bay beach picks up a murder right there on the sand. The police dismiss his report, and no bodies are found. Yet Bo knows what he saw. And he has a clue: the murderer's distinctive surfboard. If he can track that down, he'll catch the killer. But is he ready to dive back into a world where the rules are unspoken, outsiders aren't welcome, and where secrets can be as dangerous as the waves? 'The Lineup reads like a riptide.

Highly recommend.' R.W.R. McDonald, author of
