A POWERFUL CRIME MYSTERY WITH A YOUNG MAN'S JOURNEY OF SELF-DISCOVERY AT ITS CORE

"There's a lot of power and heartbreak in this outstanding small-town crime novel. Gill has proven he's a real talent to watch." - Paul Cleave, Author of Trust No One

When the body of wealthy teen and aspiring photographer Evan Wiley is found faceup at the base of Taonga Falls, one thing is immediately clear: he didn't jump.

Detective Brooke Palmer races down to the struggling New Zealand town she once called home to comfort her oldest friend - Evan's mother.

But when Brooke learns Evan had been hanging out with a boy who used to bully him, she quickly gets drawn into the case. She fears this dangerous new friendship may have cost Evan his life - or at the very least, his heart.

And as Brooke confronts her own past, she is reminded that in Taonga, even those who have it all can hit rock bottom.

A gripping whodunnit through a fresh lens, Boy Fallen will keep you guessing until the very end.
