Melbourne is gripped by fear after a backpacker’s body is found with a cryptic note, and two more women vanish without trace. When photographs begin to arrive in the inboxes of the media and police, it’s clear the killer isn’t hiding – they are performing.
Journalist Oli Groves, founder of a fledgling digital news site, knows the story could make or break her. Rookie detective Penelope Kibbs, still trying to prove herself, is desperate to stop the violence before more women are lost. But they soon realise the danger runs deeper than one killer – and closer than they want to believe.
With Click, Sarah Bailey proves herself a master of modern crime fiction, blending relentless suspense with sharp insight into obsession, corruption and survival.
‘Sarah Bailey’s Click is a masterful crime thriller. A complex police procedural that takes a deep dive into the darker side of our digital lives. A gripping, propulsive story told with an eye for the real pressures of modern policing and the challenges of a relentless news cycle.’ – Michael Brissenden, author of Smoke and Dust
‘One of the most masterful crime fiction writers in the country, Bailey has done it again. Timely, absorbing and full of suspense, you will not be able to put this book down.’ – Jessie Stephens, author of Something Bad is Going to Happen
