Description:

Private Investigator Gemma Lincoln, who last appeared in FEEDING THE DEMONS, is trying to discover who has been raping and murdering street girls from Kings Cross.

Parallel cases follow the suspicious death of a high-profile Sydney businessman and philanthropist, and an utterly ruthless drug dealer whose hobby is maintaining a small zoo of poisonous snakes.

Gemma has to contend with sabotage from within her small organisation and pangs of jealousy over her boyfriend, Steve, whose own undercover work involves getting up close and personal with an extremely beautiful society woman. How much is Steve acting a role and how much is he really involved with the woman? Haunted by the insecurities of her past, Gemma struggles to pull her life together in increasingly sinister circumstances.

Paisley Shaw has rules about dating. Coworkers and bosses are strictly off limits, and for good reason. She has too much to lose, like her job, her apartment, and ultimately her newfound independence from her twelve-yes, twelve-siblings. But surely the innocuous medical student, Henry Powell, couldn't do any harm. Or is he just a stepping stone to larger transgressions?

Jake Whalen has his own set of rules. No sleeping with relatives of bandmates or stage crew. No ifs. No buts. No excuses. He instilled the rules for a reason. Keyboardist for the infamous rock band, Hautboy, he's followed them to the T in order to keep his little sister off the playing field.

When one wittingly crosses the line, they'll both face the consequences.

But rules are made to be broken.

And perhaps the sting of discipline can be enticing.
