TIME WON'T BURY THE TRUTH

Sergeant Alan Auhl has come out of retirement. Once a shining light in Victoria's homicide squad, he now heads up the Cold Case Unit, casting an experienced eye over unsolved murders and missing persons. The young detectives think he's washed up, but this doesn't faze Auhl. He does things his own way, regardless of the consequences.

Whether he's leading the investigation into the discovery of a skeleton under a concrete slab, or following up on a daughter's plea that her father was murdered five years ago, Auhl always gets results. Because every case, no matter how cold, deserves justice.

From the author of the beloved Paul Hirsch mysteries and Hal Challis investigations comes a riveting standalone, perfect for readers of Ian Rankin, Jane Harper and Chris Hammer.
