' Australian crime fiction has just found an exciting new voice. ' Marie Claire On the evening of September 22, 1998, three teenage girls venture out for a night of mischief in the coastal town of Blairgowrie. But only two return . . . For over twenty years the disappearance of fifteen-year-old Cecilia May remains a baffling cold case - until human bones are discovered on an isolated beach. Now it' s up to Detective Emmett Corban and his team to dig up decades of trauma, and find the missing piece of an investigation that' s as complex as it is tragic. Does the answer lie with the only suspect, a registered sex offender who confessed, then immediately provided a rock-solid alibi? Or with the two teen survivors - neither of whom can keep their story straight? But the police aren' t the only ones hunting for the truth- someone else has arrived in the seaside town. And she' s prepared to do whatever it takes to find her own version of justice. . . ' A strong debut that marks Firkin out as a writer to watch out for. ' Canberra Weekly on Sticks and Stones' A gritty police procedural . . . hopefully this is the start of a great new series. ' New Idea on Sticks and Stones' This twisted and thrilling novel is a must-read for any fan of true crime. ' Stellar Magazine on Sticks and Stones
