Stillwater. Tanya Scott. 2025.

After years away from his home town of Melbourne, Luke Harris is back on track. All he wants is a normal job, his own house and a dog.

But Luke is a man with a past, when life was anything but peaceful and his skills ran to the dark side. A past not easily forgotten-or forgiven.

When he crosses paths with Gus Alberici-the brutal criminal he worked for as a teenager—he's dragged reluctantly back to his old life.

Luke's father has vanished, along with a chunk of Gus's cash.

And something is up with his new girlfriend's father ...

As his past and present collide, can Luke keep his long-held secrets-and outsmart a man who will stop at nothing to get what he wants?
