About The Washup:

A tragic accident in paradise … or a calculated crime?

After her parents’ death in a car crash two years ago, Eve is back in the tumbledown family house on Magnetic Island, surrounded by nosy neighbours, an over-friendly possum and a cast of eccentric locals. All Eve has left is her sister Tilly – not that she’s seen much of her lately, between Tilly’s history of disastrous relationships and her tendency to drink too much. And when Eve is introduced to her new boyfriend Matt, a sky-diving instructor and dead ringer for a young Richard Gere, she senses trouble. Shortly after, a skydive goes wrong and Eve is left with a mountain of unanswered questions. Matt is the prime suspect as far as she is concerned, but proving it is another matter … especially after the cops rule it an accident. It doesn’t help when Eve’s ill-advised sleepover with Shane, the local cop, goes catastrophically wrong. In trying to solve one mystery, Eve will uncover a far deeper secret hidden in the rocky outcrops of Magnetic Island – and put her own life on the line.

About the Author:

Nicole Crowe grew up in Nelly Bay on Magnetic Island in a little wooden house built by her father. The beauty and strangeness of the island, combined with her brother's former profession as a skydive tandem master, provided the inspiration for The Washup. Nicole still lives in North Queensland, but on the mainland, with her family, four chickens and a large neighbourhood python.
