Kaikōura Rendezvous

The third book in the Melbourne Spotlight Mystery series finds television colleagues Kim Prescott and Jo Trescowthick travelling New Zealand in a motorhome.

It should be a carefree summer adventure with an idyllic itinerary: whale watching in Kaikōura, mud pools in Rotorua, the stunning Marlborough Sounds.

The leisurely road trip will take them from the largest city, Auckland, to the tourist mecca of Queenstown in the deep south.

They won’t make it.
