He knows organised crime from the inside out and suspects that the victim in the camping ground is not an isolated murder.<\/p>\n<p>Jo is committed to helping the investigation but she has seen the killer\u2019s face and now she\u2019s at risk. Nick\u2019s determined to protect her but as the body count starts mounting, his past and present collide, threatening the people he cares about most.<\/p>\n<p>Trapped in rugged country in scorching summer heat, pursued by\u00a0hunters who can\u2019t afford to fail, Nick and Jo will need to trust each\u00a0other completely, and use all their skills and knowledge in order to survive.<\/p>\n<h3>Read an excerpt:<\/h3>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/bronwynparry.com\/DeadHeatChapter1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Download the first chapter (.pdf file)<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Awards<\/h3>\n<p>Winner, ARRA Favourite Romantic Suspense 2012<\/p>\n<p>Finalist, Romance Writers of America RITA Awards (Romantic Suspense) 2012<\/p>\n<p>Finalist, Daphne Du Maurier Awards 2012<\/p>\n<h3>Buy Dead Heat<\/h3>\n<p>at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.booktopia.com.au\/dead-heat-bronwyn-parry\/prod9780733625497.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Booktopia<\/a><br \/>\nat <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dymocks.com.au\/ProductDetails\/ProductDetail.aspx?R=9780733625497#.ULMaluPZ9-M\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Dymocks<\/a><br \/>\nat <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/gp\/search?ie=UTF8&amp;camp=1789&amp;creative=9325&amp;index=books&amp;keywords=Dead%20Heat%20Bronwyn%20Parry&amp;linkCode=ur2&amp;tag=bronparr-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Amazon<\/a><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" style=\"border: none !important; margin: 0px !important;\" src=\"http:\/\/www.assoc-amazon.com\/e\/ir?t=bronparr-20&amp;l=as2&amp;o=1&amp;a=B007I4C3E2\" alt=\"\" width=\"1\" height=\"1\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nat <a href=\"http:\/\/www.kobobooks.com\/ebook\/Dead-Heat\/book-8GC6YuhQZUeW8pEgy0_tJA\/page1.html?s=MJJdg_Vsd0uAH5wtgjsR8w&amp;r=2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kobo<\/a><br \/>\nat <a href=\"https:\/\/play.google.com\/store\/books\/details\/Bronwyn_Parry_Dead_Heat?id=_-sp9iHX_swC&amp;feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImJvb2stXy1zcDlpSFhfc3dDIl0.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Google Play<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Add <em>Dead Heat<\/em> on Goodreads:<\/h3>\n<div id=\"gr_add_to_books\">\n<div class=\"gr_custom_each_container_\"><a style=\"border: none;\" href=\"http:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/13456061-dead-heat\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/images\/atmb_add_book-70x25.png\" alt=\"Dead Heat\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><!-- the identifier in the following script tag can be a GR book id or an isbn --><\/p>\n<h3>Publication information:<\/h3>\n<p>Hachette Australia paperback 2013 ISBN: 9780733630132<\/p>\n<p>Hachette Australia ebook 2012 ISBN: 9780733628443<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Series note: Dead Heat was written as a stand alone book, and set in national parks around a community called Goodabri.
