High Water

By Autobook Press

Eleven people. One flooded motel. One of them is not who he claims to be.

Insurance assessor Tess Calder is driving north through Queensland to clear her late mother's home when the Bruce Highway disappears beneath floodwater. She takes shelter at the Coral Cane Motor Inn, eight kilometres outside Ingham, with ten strangers and one small boat.

Then the power fails. The caretaker vanishes. A police bulletin warns that an escaped detainee may be moving through the district, and property linked to several missing travellers has been found in his vehicle.

As water swallows the ground floor, every contradiction matters: a missing set of keys, blood where no accident can explain it, and a stranger whose story keeps changing. Beyond the rear stairs, a crocodile moves through the water surrounding the only possible route to safety.
