BOOK ONE - Arcadia Waters A cryptic message from his best friend in trouble... A cry for help! A cross-country dash pilots Mason and his trusted canine Mali to Airlie Beach and the tropical coast of the Whitsunday Islands, North-Queensland, Australia... where the hunt for a psychopathic serial killer begins... Mason soon discovers a spate of horrific crimes link back to a past he had tried so desperately hard to forget. A traumatic loss... a tragedy that would impact the remainder of his adult life! And now he must identify the connection between that harrowing past... his closest friend... an elitist swingers club... a mysterious oriental criminal mastermind... Australia's fourth wealthiest man... a leading corporate barrister... and a ravishing young supermodel destined for the catwalks of Paris... BOOK TWO - Arcadia Coast A twenty-year-old link to a cache of corpses, as the body count climbs, an International Criminal Mastermind emerges in the once peaceful tropical hamlet of Airlie Beach... with an agenda! It appears he is NOT alone... A diabolical duo make their return, and continue to confound authorities, while Mason, with faithful sidekick Mali, pursues answers to questions that have haunted him for nearly two decades. Truth, however, will be a painful journey of discovery. From a funeral for his best friend... To a missing piece of the puzzle... Mason will become a killer's target... Before an overdue brush with a ghost from his turbulent past. As a brewing tempest looms over the idyllic Whitsundays - One must ask... Will paradise be lost? PART THREE - Arcadia Shores As a devilish plot, three years in the shaping, draws close to its approaching dawn... two killers return to the Whitsundays intent on completing their work... they have much still to accomplish! Now Mason, with Mali by his side, will encounter a multitude of new conundrums including a seemingly deliberate poisoning... the bewildering disappearance of a senior police officer... a singular night of unimaginable horror... a suspiciously questionable colleague... plus a tyrannical triumvirate of fanatic villainy set to unleash a plot so retched; so diabolical, it could only be conceived in a mind of maniacal madness... or the purist of genius. A gateway from hell of 'earthly origin' will soon creek open over the idyllic Whitsunday Coast... destined to unleash a fury of evil unlike any seen before... and all will be linked to a twenty-year-old unsolved nautical mystery. It seems paradise is not alone this time, and merely the point of origin... with the entire Australian continent now under imminent threat, time is running out to discover the truth.
