Harper has an amazing ability to build character and to such you into the lives of said character. This book, like her others, sits in the outback noir genre and helps the reader feel fully immersed in the beauty and hardship of rural Australia. A young man goes missing on his 18th birthday. 5 years later his family gather in the home town that slowly dieing, to remember him and search for answers. Slow to start as the characters stories emerge, but in the end I just couldn't put it down until the last word.
An engaging story, but predictable and simply written. Felt a bit like a condensed book. However, an easy read and entertaining
A lovely story about friendship and love. A young man meets a girl on the 88 London bus, but looses her phone number, he spends the next 60 years riding the bus trying to find her to thank her for how she changed his life. When Libby moves to London after a heartbreak she meets Frank and makes it her mission to find the girl on the bus. Her life is also changed forever because of the girl on the 88 bus. A lovely easy read.
A great detective drama, looking forward to finding the rest in the series.
This was a beautiful story. It followed 3 generations of women and their search for identity and belonging. Wonderfully written and sucked me in from page 1 to the final paragraph. Loved it.
Picked this up expecting a light summer romance and got an intriguing light thriller with a surprising link to Hawke's Bay.
An amazing book. Very violent. I might come back to it after something lighter!
