When Harry's brother is arrested for the murders of three young women, her boss needs to get the mercurial Harry away "for her own good" from Sydney and a merciless press. She is assigned to a small town in Western Australia with a new partner.

As the tension mounts for her things get trickier until the final blow. [2]
Reviews
The AustCrime website likes this book with some reservations. Incidentally, it was available in Australia much earlier than it was in the U.S. The review on AustCrime said, "Never Never is a paint-by-numbers thriller, one that clearly comes from the type of book factory that can turn out a number of “co-authored” novels per year. But it is enjoyable for what it is and thriller fans will be kept happy as the pages turn."[3]
