Description
Do bad people look like good people, like friends and brothers and boyfriends and students, until they have their hands around your throat?
Gatton, Queensland. 1994. Nate is a student, dealing weed on the side. A girl called Maya Kibby is dead. No one knows who killed her. Nate needs to refresh his supply, but Jesse, his friend and dealer, is missing.
Nate is high. He is alone. Being hunted for the suitcase he's found and haunted by its contents. And as things turn from bad to worse, Nate uncovers far more than he bargained for.
The Student is high-paced, hardboiled regional noir: fresh, gritty, unnerving, with a stark and lonely beauty.
