Overview
From three-time Ngaio Marsh Award-winning author Michael Bennett comes a gripping new stand-alone crime thriller where the official story says accident, but the dead say otherwise
Chloe Venosa is about to have the worst day of her life. A newly minted constable in Sydney during the hottest summer on record, she responds to reports of gunfire at a notorious housing estate. Backup still minutes away, Chloe disobeys orders and goes in alone, pulled upwards until she reaches the roof where a split-second decision ends in a fatal fall.
Afterwards, Chloe starts to unravel. She can’t sleep, can’t trust what she saw, can’t stop reliving the moment: the same rooftop, the same man, the same drop. Time is tilting, and strange messages appear to Chloe on the wall of the building: TIME FLIES. LOOK DOWN. FAT RABBIT BOUNCE. Trauma, her superiors say. PTSD. Guilt. But fellow cop Kingston, Chloe’s boyfriend, believes something else is at work. That something—or someone—is pushing her back to that day for a reason. That the dead don’t always rest.
As Chloe and Kingston investigate the victim, the official story begins to fracture. While the fall from the roof may have been an accident, the chain of events that put him there was anything but. And the more Chloe uncovers, the more the facts seem to point towards powerful officers in her own department. To expose them, she’ll have to risk her career, her sanity—and her life. In Fat Rabbit Bounce, Ngaio Marsh Award-winning author Michael Bennett interweaves a young cop’s unwavering pursuit of the truth with Māori culture and spirituality in his irresistible signature twisty, thought-provoking style.
