Not going to lie, I accidentally grabbed this while reaching for something else, not even realising until I got home, but decided to give it a go anyway. I didn’t even realise it was the sequel to The Dry and had been made into a movie this year. Luckily you don’t need to read the first to read this one. Literally as soon as I finished I went out and bought The Dry. 

I had a great time with this. Right up my alley. Love a good mystery thriller, and even more so when it’s set in Australia. This book does a great job at the back and forth between what’s happened and what’s currently happening and how they relate, and how it all unravels. It’s just done really well. Compelling  you on the edge of your seat. Very immersive with making you feel claustrophobic. I tried to guess the ending but I was way off!
