The Crimson Lake series is set in the swampy, crocodile-infested tropics of Far North Queensland. Ted Conkaffey, a former Sydney detective accused of a crime he says he didn’t commit, flees north and falls in with Amanda Pharrell, a woman who served time for murder and now runs a private investigation business.
