Ash Island by Barry Maitland, a Belltree Mystery (2nd in series)
Publisher: Minotaur Books
Detective Sergeant Harry Belltree is back on the job after a near-fatal confrontation with corrupt colleagues and his presence has become a departmental embarrassment. Because of what happened, he can't — and doesn't want to — return to his old position with the Sydney Police Department. Instead, he accepts a post with a police department far away and attempts to build a new, quiet life in Newcastle, Australia.
But that quiet life soon eludes him. A corpse has been found buried just offshore on Ash Island and that one body may well just be the first of many. Not only that, Belltree finds himself engaged in some unfinished business from his own past. The car crash that killed his parents and blinded his wife happened not far from Newcastle. Belltree knows it was no accident, but his own investigations lead him to wonder how well he really knew his own parents.
With his wife Jenny now pregnant, a much longed-for event, it's up to Belltree to decide how he can confront the evil from the past while protecting his loved ones in the present and future.
— Ash Island by Barry Maitland
