Description
New Zealand, 1877. Two boys vanish without a trace. He's the last man they'd ask for help, but their only hope.
Sergeant Frank Hardy, a former British soldier turned mail coach driver, is no stranger to violence, but he wants no part of it anymore. When two Scandinavian teenagers disappear near a remote settlement, he reluctantly agrees to help the family search. What begins as a simple favor becomes something far more dangerous.
Drawn into a tangle of secrets, suspicion, and frontier justice, Frank must face both the wild New Zealand bush and the ghosts of his past. But he's not alone. Mette Jensen, a young Scandinavian settler and cousin to the missing boys, has a quiet strength and a determination that might just rival his own.
As the trail grows colder and tensions rise, Frank and Mette discover that the most significant threats aren't always from without... and sometimes, what you find isn't what you were looking for.
Set against the untamed landscapes of 19th-century New Zealand, Not the Faintest Trace blends historical fiction, mystery, and a slow-burning romance in a powerful series opener.
Perfect for readers who enjoy historical crime fiction, colonial mysteries, or series with a strong sense of place. Not the Faintest Trace is Book 1 in the Sergeant Frank Hardy Mysteries, each one set in the wild bush of 19th-century New Zealand and inspired by real events and places.
