G. I cannot believe that this is a debut novel. It is soooo good! I loved this book. I honestly did not expect many of the twists and turns and was kept on the tip of my toes for much of the book. I really connected to all of the characters and really wanted them all to get a happy ending.
This gave me "The Dry" by Jane Harper vibes. Except a little less graphic. Both will go down as two of my favourite Australian mystery thrillers.
