Maori cop Tito Ihaka, """"unkempt... unorthodox and profane"""", is unable to play the police politics necessary for promotion, but he's a stubborn investigator with an uncanny instinct for the truth. In Fallout he investigates the unsolved killing of 17-year-old girl at a party in a ritzy villa near Auckland. Ihaka is also embroiled in a personal mystery. A journalist has stumbled across information that Ihaka's father, a trade union firebrand, didn't die of natural causes. The stories weave themselves into an exciting climax in an atmosphere of political intrigue.
