Leigh Dovey is the author of books The Fallow Field and Bad Code, and screenwriter of films Haven, Served Cold and The Fallow Field. He served in the Royal Air Force, worked as a ranch hand in Australia, as a security guard in Canada, and in various roles in the television industry in the UK. He once played an unlikely looking Spanish general in a film about The Spanish Armarda.
The dilapidated, rotting town of Sweetwater, teetering on the edge of the Great Australian Bight, has long been prey to more shark attacks than any other place on earth. When Joanne and her troubled amputee lover Ben become stranded in Sweetwater out of season, they find themselves pursued, spied on and baited by the unhinged townsfolk.
Joanne's sudden disappearance propels Ben on a desperate, violent journey through Sweetwater's twisted streets to confront its psychotic inhabitants and eventually, his own tortured history. A man now afraid of all things, Ben must eventually face everyone's worst fear in the pitch-black predatory waters that lay siege to the town.
