PROMISES AND OTHER LIES


A gripping middle-grade crime mystery in which a small coastal
town is torn apart by more than just a bushfire.
One year on from a devastating bushfire,
the small coastal town of Wangaroo Bay is still reeling.
Fletch’s family lost their home, and his best friend Immie
lost her beloved dad, a volunteer firefighter.
Throughout it all, Fletch and Immie have had each other …
Immie’s grandparents push for the Operation Bayfire investigation
to be reopened, but Fletch’s mum, dad and elder brother Cooper
want to put the past behind them. And when a local, one of their own,
is charged with arson, emotions flare, sides are taken, and promises
– and secrets – are at stake.
The fire has already destroyed Wangaroo Bay,
now its aftermath threatens to destroy
Fletch and Immie and their families too.
