I finally, finally read this highly rated mystery. A small Australian town with big, big secrets and suspense that kept me on the edge of my seat throughout. Jane Harper's smooth writing will place you in the heart of this Australian town; the people, the drought, the tragedy, and the suspicions. A wonderful debut with solid characters that I'll eagerly return to in this new mystery series.
The first half of this was really boring but it does get better in the second half. I started off listening to this on audio and the audio was not very good ended up reading the rest.
Really enjoyed this Australian mystery, especially the way the land and the relentless drought played into the moodiness and foreboding.
