Dan Calder is back!
In The Second Grave we see Dan at home in New Zealand looking a little more optimistically towards the future, when suddenly he is propelled into another dangerous scenario. A call from Nick Hetherington, his best friend and ex-partner necessitates an unscheduled and early return to his old patch. A prostitute is dead; Nick's daughter Amber is the only suspect
and Calder's own brand of investigation is required to unravel the ungodly mess where almost unbelievably the Police now seem to be the enemy. Dan makes the trip back to the homeland to help his old mate but that means facing his darkest moment again as old acquaintances and old enemies set his cupboard full of skeletons rattling once more. New foes, including a local gangster, are prepared to do anything to prevent the truth being revealed. Left at home Calder's girlfriend, Tara, senses he also sees it as an opportunity to settle some unforgotten scores. Their relationship began and developed amid cruel circumstances and it is still fragile at times. For good or bad she already knows him very well and is all too aware he has revenge on his mind.
Time and the odds are against Dan. Incredibly so too are the upholders of law itself, his beloved police force. Rushing headlong towards the past - whoever coined the phrase you couldn't even make this stuff up was very wrong - The Second Grave has Calder facing the battle of his life to fulfil a solemn promise to his dearest friend.
Dan's unerring ability to attract tragedy strikes when someone is savagely beaten to death leaving him devastated and wondering if he should continue and risk causing even more misery. Just when it seems all is lost a lifeline appears from the most outrageous corner imaginable and all their destinies take a shocking turn. The odds are against him, time is against him and even the law is against him this time. Calder is in trouble.... so what's new!
