Book Description
Davina Blackley was once a competent, confident senior officer in the Western Australian Police Force—until toxic masculinity got her fired. Now she investigates insurance claims, a far cry from her old life.
Then everything changes again. One moment, she’s trailing a man who falsely reported stolen gold bullion (he’d merely hidden it, waiting for prices to rise). The next, she’s alone in a dark cell, hands tied, a bag over her head. She almost died—and still can’t remember everything that happened.
Now her boss insists on therapy. Counselling. Talking to a stranger about feelings. Worse? She’s been saddled with a partner. The guy (whose name isn’t Ted) doesn’t play well with others. He’s a brilliant investigator, no doubt, but now he also resents being encumbered.
Their mission: Investigate two massive insurance claims that, if paid, would spike premiums for everyone—a scenario the Board finds unacceptable. Ted and Davina, the so-called “Dream Team”, must dig up evidence to refute both claims. But there’s something they don’t know—Perth’s most vicious crime boss is invested in both matters.
