A missing child. A city on edge. Time is running out� The world is in the grip of climate catastrophe. Sydney has been transformed by rising sea levels, soaring temperatures and rocketing social divide and unrest. When a small girl on the margins goes missing, Senior Detective Sadiya Azad is assigned to find her. She knows exactly what it is to be displaced, and swallowed by the landscape. A murder at the site of the child's disappearance suggests a connection and web of corruption, but fear keeps eyes turned and mouths closed. With few leads to go on and only days until a deadly storm strikes the city, Sadiya and offsider Detective Sergeant Paul Findlay find themselves locked in a race against time. Chilling and utterly compelling, Landfall is crime writing at its best - and a terrifying vision of the future bearing down on us. 'Australia's literary Nostradamus' - The Weekend Australian
