The exciting new rural crime novel from the bestselling author of Broken Bay and The Creeper. When a massive wind farm is erected on its outskirts, a small Victorian town is ripped apart in the deadliest of ways.

High on a hill above the small Victorian town of Carrabeen, 300 wind turbines constantly spin.

Except one is now deadly still - a body hanging from its huge white blade.

Detective Sergeants Belinda Burney and Will Lovell are shocked to discover the dead man is Geordie Pritchard, a rich local philanthropist and owner of the wind energy farm.

Suicide at first seems the likely explanation, until Geordie's widow Lucinda insists her husband was murdered - and she has the death threats to prove it.

Certainly the wind farm has ripped the rural town in two. Some welcome the jobs and prosperity it brings, others are enraged by the loss of farming land.

In short, Pritchard was both saint and sinner. But who in the small community hated him enough to want him dead?
