Review:
I've read several other books by Harper before and she never disappoints. This was a fantastic read.
The story starts off right away with a dead body, a fantastic setting and really interesting characters. The mystery is clever and the writing is great, and I loved trying to figure out who had done it, if anyone. We also sort of get to know the characters slowly and it's so fascinating to see them reveal themselves at the end.
My favorite part of about all of Harper's books though is the atmosphere. There's just something in the way she captures the outback in this that adds a creepy element to the book that I love.
Definitely one of my favorite books I've read this year and a must read for all mystery lovers!
