'A brilliantly twisty yarn for all fans of Aussie noir.' New Idea
When a school group of teenage girls goes missing in the remote Tasmanian wilderness, the people of Limestone Creek are immediately on alert. Three decades ago, five young girls disappeared amidst those dangerous bluffs, and the legend of 'the Hungry Man' still haunts locals to this day.

What happened up there on the bluffs? Somebody knows - unless the local legends are true...
