The Water's Dead: A DI Nyree Bradshaw Novel 1
The chin tattoo confirms the victim is Māori. The whorls of ink from her lower lip to her chin — the moko — is worn only by Māori women. So, her ethnicity is a given. The mystery of who murdered her and dumped her body in the volcanic rock pool at the base of Mason’s Rock waterfall is DI Nyree Bradshaw’s latest case.
From the strangely unsympathetic parents, to the belligerent boyfriend on home detention for drugs, it seems everyone has something to hide and no one is telling the truth. Then Nyree discovers six-year-old diabetic, Lily Holmes is missing, last seen in the victim's care.
Now, Nyree must now find the killer to save Lily.
She has already failed her own son. She cannot fail this child.
