About this book

Cattle bones sustain Marra Vale’s water supply; when veterinarian Daniel Riggs discovers a human bone, the town’s survival comes at a terrible cost.

Marra Vale is running out of water, and veterinarian Daniel Riggs has stopped the kiln that turns cattle bones into filter material for the town’s last usable supply. The remains may hold evidence linked to a teenager who vanished twenty-three years earlier, but every fragment preserved brings the community closer to thirst. In this isolated Australian town, pursuing an old truth means endangering the living.
