Destination Tribulation - Book Four.

Journalist Annie Bryce might be savvy and spirited but right now she's scared stiff. Her nemesis Martin Barclay is coming to kill her. His murder conviction overturned on a technicality, the police are powerless to stop him.

A hasty move to steamy North Queensland with partner Steve is no escape - Barclay is hot on their trail, peppering their lives with threats and destruction. Her already stormy relationship with Steve begins to melt down under stress from all fronts. Isolated and anguished, Annie saves her sanity by throwing herself into a job delving into the dark years of World War Two, when North Queensland was pivotal to the allies' defence against the Japanese; there she discovers a shocking, long-held secret. All the while the sadistic Barclay is closing in, and all the while she knows that confrontation she dreads is inevitable ...
