'Children's author Mickey Douglas is either accident-prone or someone is trying to kill him. Returning home one hot, sticky Brisbane afternoon, intent on relaxing in a tub of cold water, he finds his bath already occupied by his illustrator, Owen Pendleton. Except that Owen isn't trying to beat the heat. Owen is very dead. And this is only the first in a series of horrifying discoveries for Mickey as he finds himself caught in a desperate race to save his ex-wife and others from a ruthless gang.'
