LIFE ON THE PENINSULA, just south of Melbourne, is gearing up to a hot dry Christmas. Detective Inspector Hal Challis thinks the biggest issue in his sleepy beat is how to recycle shower water. That is, until a murderer rapist strikes on the old Peninsular Highway. After a second killing, people begin to suspect a serial killer. When a third death takes place, all hell breaks loose.
