A review by wendoxford
The Lost Man, by Jane Harper

5.0

Brilliant evocation of place...outback Australia..tough isolated living and the taciturn male psyche that inhabits this life.
A real slow burner, we start with a death from the burning sun, a mystery, brothers and the questions surrounding this opener drive the novel. Pain of every sort through the generations haunt the pages with the perennial theme of family secrets making it a real page turner.
