They say the dead can’t hurt you—they’re wrong.
In the shadowed township of Kapunda, South Australia, misery clings to the land like oil, poisoning everything it touches. Despite the town’s efforts to bury its grim past, the horrors of what came before refuse to stay dead.
When Joshua Triplow receives an impossible phone call in the dead of night, he’s compelled to return to the place that shattered him. Meanwhile, Constable Benjamine McLevy battles relentless visions of the tortured dead—spirits that shouldn’t walk among the living but haunt her every waking moment.
As the line between life and death unravels, they’ll uncover a terrifying truth: in Kapunda, nothing ever truly dies—and the past is more dangerous than they ever imagined.
