Weekend detention was supposed to keep Dave Callahan out of trouble. Instead, it throws him headlong into a violent chase across the back roads of New South Wales.

When a hidden map surfaces in a prison cell, everyone wants it: bikers who rule the highways, cops who should be upholding the law, and a billionaire willing to kill to keep the past buried.

Caught in the middle, Dave is forced to run. From the streets of Muswellbrook to the wilderness of the Pilliga, every mile drags him deeper into a fight for survival - and closer to a secret others will die to protect.

Fast-paced, gritty, and deeply Australian, Ironbark is a relentless rural thriller for readers who crave action, suspense, and crime with a brutal edge. Fans of Matthew Reilly, Lee Child, Jane Harper, and Chris Hammer will feel right at home - and on the edge of their seat.
