Book description
When Sienna Hegarty turns up at his family home one night, covered in
blood and frozen in shock, psychologist Joe O'Loughlin finds himself
drawn deep into her world, trying to unearth the dark secrets her mind
has buried. The police find a major piece of the puzzle at Sienna's
house: her father, a retired cop, is face-down in a pool of his own
blood, his throat slashed and his skull caved in. The blood covering
Sienna was his. The 14-year-old can't remember what happened that night
but, at the same time, Sienna doesn't mourn her father's death. What was
going on behind closed doors in the Hegarty household? Is Sienna guilty
of brutal murder? And what part has her charismatic teacher Gordon Ellis
played in this blood-soaked event? Before writing full-time Michael
Robotham was an investigative journalist in Britain, Australia and the
US. He is the pseudonymous author of 10 best-selling non-fiction titles,
involving prominent figures in the military, the arts, sport and
science. He lives in Sydney with his wife and 3 daughters.
