High Country (2024 Marcia Gardner)

Leah Pucell is a city detective somehow relegated to the Alps in the North-East of Victoria, with her wife Sara Wiseman and daughter Pez Warner. People keep going missing.

With ex-Inspector Ian McElhinney (The Outlaws, The Split etc.), Aaron Pedersen, Linda Cropper, Geoff Morrell, Henry Nixon (the suspected paedophile).

There were a couple of bits where I went 'What???' Like when the biker and his boss kidnap the detective and then are going to kill her - why?? That would bring a ton of shit down on them, to no end. And same at the end where the other stupid bad guys kidnap the girlfriend and daughter for no purpose other than to bring the law down on them hard (when surely just fleeing would be the thing to do).
