Out of Nowhere

BY FLEUR MCDONALD

In the remote Flinders Ranges, Hallie Donaldson struggles with isolation on the cattle station she shares with her husband, Alex, and their young daughter. When Alex is found dead after suddenly disappearing from a security camera feed, Hallie uncovers unsettling phone messages on his mobile. A short time later, one of Alex’s close friends from agricultural college, Danny Betts, loses his life in another tragic rural accident. When Hallie reveals the horrifying information she’s been keeping secret to Detective Dave Burrows and his partner, Constable Mia Worth, they quickly realise that all is not what it seems.

The Front Runner by Elsie Silver

The Front Runner

BY ELSIE SILVER

Stefan Dalca is infuriatingly handsome and annoyingly persistent. We’re supposed to hate each other, but apparently he didn’t get the memo, because he’s been asking me out for years. And I always say no. Until today. Today he has something that I desperately need—today, he’s my saviour. Our time together starts out as a simple transaction: three dates, no touching, no telling anyone - and definitely no falling in love. But with every intimate conversation, and each stolen glance, the tension between us builds. Giving in to Stefan Dalca is playing with fire. But with him I don’t even mind the heat.
