3.5/5⭐️ I really enjoyed this one! The authors did a good job of keeping me exceedingly nervous during peak high-pressure situations.

The book made me very thirsty. I think I was drinking something the entire time. The story was interesting, though I didn‘t like any of the characters. I didn‘t care enough about them to be sad if they died, but I enjoyed the book. Doesn‘t seem that far-fetched.

My hubs went up north for Easter weekend hunting. He very proudly surprised me by bringing these home for me. He doesn‘t read, but they‘re his taste if he would. I, however, don‘t want to read a single one and feel terrible about it. But come on man, you couldn‘t just go for the easy win with some romance? 😂

Ruthiella It‘s the thought that counts! 😅 5mo

Tore through this police procedure set in a dying, drought-plagued Australian farm town. I thought the author did a good job immersing you in the setting and the characters‘ lives and motivations. Well-plotted with good suspense and a satisfying resolution. Thank you @TheAromaofBooks for sending me this gift! #bookspin

TheAromaofBooks I love the way Harper manages to make the setting/weather its own character in a way. So much atmosphere. 6mo

I was looking to see if a new Jane Harper might be in the works and found she hasn't updated social media since May 10. Google didn't give me any info newer than this either. Have any of you heard anything about her that I've missed?

Bookwormjillk Hmmm I hope she‘s just in the zone writing her next book 9mo
bookandbedandtea @Bookwormjillk I hope so too! 🤞🏻 9mo

This was highly recommended by a friend.

I immediately downloaded the second book, so it's safe to say I enjoyed it 😄

A family is murdered in his hometown, and detective Falk weeds through old memories and new clues in order to solve the mystery.

The drought plagued setting is just as much a character as any of the people.
