About this listen

Cold cases, murder, lies, and an unimaginable truth.

Sydney Detective August Shaw has spent the last decade of work solving cold cases. His work is his entire life, and he's convinced a string of unsolved cold-case suicides are linked to what could be Australia's worst ever serial killer. Problem is, no one believes him.

Senior Constable Jacob Porter loves his life in the small town of Tallowwood in northern New South Wales. He runs summer camps for the local Indigenous kids, plays rugby with his mates, has a close family, and he's the local LGBTQIA+ Liaison and the Indigenous Liaison Officer.

When human remains are found in the camping grounds at Tallowwood Reserve, Jake's new case turns out to be linked to August's cold cases, and Jake agrees they're not suicides at all. With Jacob now firmly in August's corner, they face one hurdle after another. Even when more remains are found, they can't seem to gain ground. But when the body of a fellow police officer turns up under the same MO, it can't be ignored anymore.

August and Jake must trace the untraceable before the killer takes his next victim or before he stops one of them, permanently.

Contains mature themes.

Great story, ok narrator

I adored both August and Jake and their romance. The storyline was solid with just enough suspense. I’m afraid I can’t extoll the praises of the narrator though. This was the first time I’ve listened to him. He did a good job keeping the characters voices different enough to know who was speaking, but I couldn’t really pick up emotion from his narration. Others felt he did a good job at that though. The big question here is, would I listen to it again, and the answer is yes.

Beautiful Outback love and mystery story

N.R. Walker wrote a suspenseful mystery, in which two men fall in love. The story is fast paced and the short bio of the MCs develops nicely therein. I got a bit of insight in what one part of Australia has to offer that I don’t know yet. I’ve only been to Sydney. I can only say that N.R.W. knows how to capture her readers and lets them off the hook at the end; I could not put it down (stop listening) because she has the skillz. According to me I have not heard Antony Ferguson narrate a book before, or maybe I have, but in any case, I liked his voices. Clean cut Aussie accent and engaging. I will continue to read N.R.W. and check out Antony’s narrations. ❤️

First rate story telling and warm hearted romance

Tallowood is just superb from beginning to end, An exceptional cast of characters, both good and evil, to keep the listener totality engaged as well as a top notch murder mystery to keep one guessing.

I laughed and cried as I listened to this book and hated for it to end . I thought Mr. Ferguson did an excellent job narrating and will look forward to reading other.books by N .R. Walker.

Masterful!

What a gripping mystery story. The plot, the twists, the characters, the romance and a little dash of paranormal. It's one of my favorite reads from NR Walker. The narrator did a good job bringing the story to life.

A perfect combo

The dark story of the corrupt police and romance after tragedy is both heart breaking and heart warming.

Best mystery suspense romance

I must say I’ve put this book off for years because of reviews saying good but no real romance. I’m here to say that it was a very romantic book and awesome mystery suspense. Yes it is not erotic but it really didn’t need it to make it a beautiful story. One of the best books I’ve read in a long time. Wish there were more books like this in the m/m romance category than the same old fake boyfriend or enemies to lovers that are ridiculously overused in this genre. Thank you for your knowledge and awesome writing NR Walker and thank you Anthony Ferguson for your awesome narration. Big fan of you both.
