When Detective Sergeant Anastasia Brown is sent to investigate the strange death of a man found in a small NSW town, she sees it as an opportunity to redeem herself after an unjust suspension.
But it’s far from a simple homicide. The victim, a beloved GP and councilor, is found on a nearby mountain chained to a fence and burned to a crisp, with arcane symbols carved into the soles of his feet – and the boy who found the body saw a ghost lingering in the trees.
As Ana struggles against small-town secrets and high-level misogyny, the truth only grows murkier. Is this a clever killer with a flair for the macabre? Or are the local murmurs of the mountain being haunted more than just folklore??
