About the book: When a massive wind farm is erected on its outskirts, a small Victorian town is ripped apart in the deadliest of ways. High on a hill above the small Victorian town of Carrabeen, 300 wind turbines constantly spin. Except one is now deadly still – a body hanging from its huge white blade.
Detective Sergeants Belinda Burney and Will Lovell are shocked to discover the dead man is Geordie Pritchard, a rich local philanthropist and owner of the wind energy farm. Suicide at first seems the likely explanation, until Geordie’s widow Lucinda insists her husband was murdered – and she has the death threats to prove it. In short, Pritchard was both saint and sinner. But who in the small community hated him enough to want him dead?
