The novel is a sweeping, dual-timeline mystery that begins with a shocking crime in the Adelaide Hills, South Australia, on Christmas Eve, 1959. On a scorching hot day, a local man discovers a mother and her four children deceased beside a creek on the grounds of a grand country house, in a baffling event known as the Turner Family Tragedy, which is never satisfactorily resolved. Many years later, in 2018, journalist Jess is summoned from London back to Sydney after her beloved grandmother, Nora, who raised her, suffers a serious fall and is hospitalized. While at Nora's house, Jess discovers a true-crime book chronicling the 1959 Turner Family Tragedy. As she skims the pages, she finds a shocking, long-buried connection between her own family and this notorious cold case, forcing her to investigate the dark secrets that echo across continents and generations.
