It’s definitely a slow burn murder mystery, so if you’re expecting a fast paced thriller, this isn’t for you but the journey was so worth it! What impressed me the most were her descriptions of the punishing temperatures of the Australian outback. With this book, Jane Harper has written such a spectacular story that drew me in completely from the start with her riveting and hypnotic prose.
It’s a feeling I haven’t felt in years! …And with that little bout of nostalgia out of the way, let’s get to the review! 😬 Granted, I was also as city as you could get living and studying in Melbourne, but reading about the outback and the environment really brought out a familiar sense of longing for a home that I’ve missed. I’m surrounded by a lot of Australians here in Bali, so it’s not like I’ve missed the accent or the people or anything like that. There’s something about reading a story based in a country I used to live in for six incredible years that has struck a very nostalgic chord in me.
Let me start of by saying WOW I absolutely loved this book.
