About The Book

A teenage girl vanishes. As rumours of devil worship spread, a town wants someone to blame.

Summer, 1989.

When a local teenager disappears from the quiet suburb of Camp Hill, fear takes hold. Rumours of Satanic rituals and secret cults sweep through the community, turning neighbours against one another as suspicion and paranoia spread.

Schoolteacher Tom Witter becomes convinced he holds the key to the girl's disappearance. But when the police refuse to listen, he launches his own investigation with the help of the missing girl's father and a determined neighbourhood watch group.

As dark secrets emerge and long-buried guilt rises to the surface, Tom is drawn deeper into a mystery that threatens to consume everyone involved. Because in a suburb built on appearances, the truth is far more dangerous than the rumours.

From international bestselling author Christian White, Wild Place is a gripping, twist-filled thriller about obsession, fear, and the darkness hiding behind suburban doors.
