Initially slow to get in to, however by midway the suspense increased. Some annoying page turning tricks. In the end a good read, made feel sad and hopeful. Doesn't make you want to live in outback Australia.

Jane Harper is the absolute best there is these days when it comes to Australian mystery novels, set in towns that feel so authentic. Shanahan makes for the perfect narrator for her audiobooks as well, with each character so distinctly unique. Highly recommend if you want to read or listen to something you can't step away from.

This book captures and utilises the mystery of the Australian landscape beautifully in both the setting and characters. The novel deals with important issues such as loneliness, mental health and abuse from a unique and immersive perspective. Gripping until the very end.
