2018 Davitt Award Adult Novel Winner Longlisted for the 2019 International Dublin Literary Award "Ned Kelly Award-winner Viskic combines nuanced characters and thoughtful plotting in her impressive sequel to Resurrection Bay, which introduced hearing-impaired Australian PI Caleb Zelic. " -- Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) " Caleb's second outing establishes him as a sensitive protagonist in a harsh world.

Zelic is a good man in a wicked world and it will be a real pleasure to meet him again." -- Evening Standard "A worthy successor [to Resurrection Bay]... A fascinating world, very cleverly painted through a prose that is spare and yet extremely effective... [with] an uncanny ability to skewer conventions and pierce through to the truth." -- Thriller Books Journal "It's a scorcher... an utterly compelling and thought provoking read." -- Raven Crime Reads "This is crime fiction at its best. Loved Jane Harper's The Dry? Read this." - Written by Sime "Emma Viskic is a terrific, gutsy writer with great insight into the murkiness of both criminal and heroic motivations." - Emily Maguire, author of An Isolated Incident "A plot that keeps us guessing to the end ... Viskic takes her place up there with Australia's new legion of uber-talented female crime writers such a Jane Harper and Candice Fox, deservedly so." - Better Reading, book of the week "The opening chapter had me completely HOOKED! I was absolutely enthralled... A taut storyline, addictive atmosphere and compelling narrative had me reading this book every spare moment I had... And Fire Came Down just BLEW me away - if you want a series that will knock you for six, grab you instantly and keep you engaged throughout - you need to buy this book!" -- Crime Book Junkie (blog) "An addictive mix of compelling characters and gripping plot." -- Crime Thriller Hound (blog) "A tightly plotted, sophisticated thriller." -- The Writes of Woman (blog) "An immensely talented stylist, her characters jump off the page... vividly expressive series." -- ReviewingTheEvidence.com (blog) "Plenty of intrigue in plot and character." -- David's Book World (blog)
