The Eel That Slept

By Martin Sansom

In the wild and rugged mountains of Aotearoa New Zealand, the mutilated body of a global fishing celebrity has been discovered and DS Rachael Blunt is assigned to the case. Meanwhile, Jenny Sunley, a TV weathergirl, is sent to cover the story of a once-in-a-lifetime weather event, an unusual 'blood rain' that has travelled all the way from Australia's red centre. Working with her new cameraman, Jenny quickly bonds with the like-able yet secretive character, but she's left with a feeling that there's much more to Dave Norman than meets the eye. All this takes place in the modern world of cars and mobile phones, but all the while, something else is watching them. A creature from ancient Maori legend, an evil from the darkness of time, and its reawakening heralds the start of much darker days still to come.
