In the summer of 1948, a mysterious figure was discovered lifeless on an Adelaide beach, sparking intrigue and speculation that would endure for decades. The man, elegantly dressed and devoid of any identification, held an enigmatic half-smoked cigarette, hinting at a story that would remain largely untold. This incident, steeped in secrecy, became known as the Somerton Man mystery.
Kerry Greenwood delves into this puzzling case, exploring the layers of deception and the enigmatic circumstances surrounding the man's death. As investigators sift through threads of clues, including a cryptic note and a rare book of poetry, the narrative unfolds with tantalizing complexity, intertwining themes of identity, love, and death. Greenwood's exploration illuminates not only the mystery itself but also the cultural and historical context of post-war Australia, raising questions that linger long after the book closes.
