What killed Derek Peabody? On a Tasmanian beach during the coldwater swimming group's nude midwinter dip?No one liked him. Not his wife, his ex-wife, his brother, his wife's sister, his business partner, nor the collegues he'd cheated over the years. Certainly not the community of Coldwater Bay, where he planned to start a fish farm. And especially not the coldwater swimmers, a group of women of a certain age adamantly opposed to fish farming.
An intriguing thriller set on the beautiful ‘Apple Isle’.
Alison Alexander is a leading and prize-winning Australian historian whose distinguished works include Corruption and Skullduggery (2015; republished by EER, 2024) and Land of Rogues & Scoundrels (EER, 2025). Alison is a keen cold-water swimmer.
