Insurance investigator Bill Kemp had never wanted to venture deep into the remote interior of Australia. But when his clients, Sophie and Adam Church, inherit an abandoned opal mine, triggering some explosive long-lost secrets, they, along with Kemp, find themselves facing an unknown enemy even more deadly than the vast and forbidding wilderness of the Outback.

The Desmond Bagley centenary novel pays tribute to the legacy of the bestselling thriller writer with a new adventure featuring Bill Kemp, described by Jeffrey Deaver as "part James Bond, part Philip Marlowe, and all hero." Writer Michael Davies, who completed the first Kemp novel, Domino Island, for publication nearly 40 years after the author's death, now weaves an original tale of danger and death under the blistering Australian sun.
