Not the Faintest Trace: The Sergeant Frank Hardy Mysteries: # 1
by Wendy M. Wilson
A soldier who's seen more death than he cares to remember. A young Scandinavian woman who's seeking a different life. Two missing Scandinavian settlers. A killer hiding in the dense New Zealand bush. Not the Faintest Trace is the first book in an atmospheric and adventurous mystery series.
When ex-soldier Sergeant Frank Hardy is asked to find two missing settlers, he doesn't expect to recapture the excitement of battle. But when luck is all that comes between him and death by tomahawk, he begins to wonder if he's being targeted. Can he save himself and the young woman he's vowed to protect?
Live for a while in the wild New Zealand settlements of nineteenth century New Zealand.

"My forebears lived in the wider area throughout the period covered in the book (and one was killed in the NZ Wars) - so I could have been a very hard-sell, but instead I loved the whole exciting story. I'm very happy to recommend this book and the second in the series, and roll on the publication of the next one." Val Burr, Local Historian, Palmerston North, New Zealand.
