Some stories can’t be silenced.
Twenty years after fleeing her hometown, journalist Audrey Lord is back on Victoria’s Mornington Peninsula — older, restless, and stuck covering local news at the Gazette. She craves real investigative work, and when whispers of murder surface, she can’t resist digging deeper.
With her husband offshore and two teenagers testing her patience, Audrey leans on her newsroom allies, her local knowledge, and the one advantage police don’t always have: people tell her things they’d never put in an official statement.
Each case pulls her deeper into a world of missing people, suspicious deaths, powerful families, buried secrets, and long-held grudges.
In a town where everyone knows everyone, asking the wrong questions could cost her everything.
