People come to Hades Archer to dispose of their 'problems' - for a fee. But one night he makes a decision that will change everything. Twenty years later, homicide detective Frank Bennett meets his new partner, the dark and beautiful Eden Archer. But there's something strange about Eden and her brother, Eric. Something he can't quite put his finger on. And as they race to catch a serial killer, Frank starts to wonder if she's as dangerous as the man they hunt.

Hades ist der "Herr der Unterwelt" von Sydney. Er weiß alles über das Verbrechen in seiner Stadt, denn auf seiner gigantischen Müllhalde entsorgt er gegen Honorar Menschen, die gewaltsam zu Tode gekommen sind. Dieses Schicksal hätten auch beinahe die Kleinkinder Eden und Eric geteilt, die man bei Hades deponiert hat. Aber die beiden leben noch. Sie wachsen bei Hades auf und werden Top-Cops bei der Mordkommission von Sydney. Das ist jedoch nur eines ihrer eines Gesicht, ihr eines Konzept von "Gerechtigkeit".

If Detective Frank Bennett tries hard enough, he can sometimes forget that his partner, Eden Archer, is also moonlighting as a serial killer. Thankfully their latest case is proving a good distraction. Someone is angry at Sydney's beautiful people, and the results are anything but pretty. On the rain-soaked running tracks of Sydney's parks, a predator is lurking, and it's not long before nighttime jogging become a race to stay alive.

Als der achtjährige Richie scheinbar spurlos aus einem Hotelzimmer verschwindet, übernehmen die Ermittler Ted Conkaffey und Amanda Pharrell die Suche nach dem vermissten Jungen. Und begeben sich dabei selbst in große Gefahr.

Nach einer falschen Verdächtigung liegt das Leben von Ted Conkaffey in Trümmern: Das ganze Land hält ihn für den Vergewaltiger des Mädchens, dem er vor zwei Jahren zufällig am Rande eines Highways begegnet war. Von seiner Familie verlassen und vom Polizeidienst suspendiert, lebt er seit dem Vorfall zurückgezogen in der düsteren Kleinstadt Crimson Lake.

Sechs Minuten, für die er kein Alibi hat - mehr braucht es nicht, um das Leben von Detective Ted Conkaffey vollständig zu ruinieren. Die Anklage gegen ihn wegen Vergewaltigung der dreizehnjährigen Claire wird zwar fallengelassen, doch alle Welt glaubt zu wissen, dass er schuldig ist. Um der gesellschaftlichen Ächtung zu entgehen, zieht sich der Ex-Cop nach Crimson Lake im Norden Australiens zurück und trifft dort auf Amanda Pharrell. Auch diese saß wegen eines angeblichen Verbrechens im Gefängnis.

Ted Conkaffey, Ex-Cop und unschuldig unter Verdacht, eine 13-Jährige entführt zu haben, kann seine Vergangenheit nicht loswerden. Als der Vater des Opfers in Crimson Lake auftaucht und Vergeltung fordert, bleibt ihm keine Wahl: Er muss den wahren Täter finden - koste es, was es wolle. Währenddessen ist seine Privatdetektiv-Partnerin, die geniale, einst wegen Mordes verurteilte Amanda Pharrell, mit einem anderen Fall beschäftigt: dem Doppelmord an zwei Mitarbeitern einer üblen Kneipe, der zunächst wie ein simpler Raubmord aussieht.

Six minutes in the wrong place at the wrong time—that’s all it took to ruin Sydney detective Ted Conkaffey’s life. Accused but not convicted of a brutal abduction, Ted is now a free man—and public enemy number one. Maintaining his innocence, he flees north to keep a low profile amidst the steamy, croc-infested wetlands of Crimson Lake. There, Ted’s lawyer introduces him to eccentric private investigator Amanda Pharrell, herself a convicted murderer.
