And suddenly, in what felt like a blinding premonition, Kieran had the urge to turn back the clock. Refuse to take Pendlebury down to the caves, tel her he'd made his peace with the storm and wasn't interested in dredging it up again. He wished he and Mia had gone home instead of coming here to this police station, where he suddenly found himself very afraid of what Sergeant Renn was going to say next. (PGS. 448-449)

Jane Harper knows how to write a well-written slow burn novel. The characters are never trustworthy but we don't find out why until the end. The Survivors is set in the Australian coast with the small town reeling of death and loss from the previous storm. When the next murder occurs the storm secrets start emerging but what the reader doesn't know is how they can possibly be connected.

I enjoyed it, although, I was a bit bored in the middle. It was repetitive and such a slow burn that it took me too long to finish. It was an engaging story line and setting but definitely could have been a bit shorter and gotten to the point in a timely manner.

Ian M. Pyatt Well thought out review. Lots of mixed reviews on this one, but looking forward to reading this - sometime - so many TBR on my list :)


Karina Thank you much, Ian. I’d definitely check this out. It’s very good and nice to get away from New York or LA settings� I agree! Too many books to read before we pass on in this life


Jenna agree!


Karina Thank you, friend!
