The Price of Justice

IT IS NOW 2016 AND GREG BOWKER HAS RISEN THROUGH THE RANKS TO DETECTIVE INSPECTOR WITH THE HOMICIDE SQUAD... Thirty-one years ago, Bowker solved the brutal murder of a teenage schoolgirl while a senior constable in the one-copper Mallee town of Manangatang.

Now, he must return to the area to investigate another killing.

The victim: the original killer who had just been released following his lengthy prison sentence.

The scene of the crime: the exact location the schoolgirl had been murdered years earlier.

Bowker is sure the two murders are connected and with his knowledge from the previous case, compiling his first list of suspects proves initially straight-forward.

Despite the familiarity of the case, there is a whole new set of challenges for Greg Bowker and he ultimately must ask - are there others involved...?
