The Sequel to Desmond Bagley’s DOMINO ISLAND
Insurance investigator Bill Kemp had never wanted to trek deep into Australia’s remote interior. But when his clients Sophie and Adam Church inherit an abandoned opal mine, triggering some explosive long-lost secrets, they – and Kemp – find themselves facing an unknown enemy even more deadly than the vast, forbidding wilderness of the Outback…
The Desmond Bagley centenary novel honours the legacy of the bestselling thriller writer with a new adventure featuring Bill Kemp, described by Jeffrey Deaver as ‘part James Bond, part Philip Marlowe, and all hero’. Writer Michael Davies, who completed the first Kemp novel Domino Island for publication nearly 40 years after the author’s death, now weaves an original tale of danger and death under the blistering Australian sun.
Praise for the previous book, Domino Island:
‘What a wonderful book! And a protagonist for all time, Bill Kemp—part James Bond, part Philip Marlowe, and all hero. A brilliant and timeless novel’
JEFFERY DEAVER
‘A vintage Bagley scenario of siege, jeopardy and explosive action’
MIKE RIPLEY
‘Like a dream come true – an undiscovered Desmond Bagley novel … and it’s a great one!’
