I have borrowed this as an audiobook download from local library, looking for a 'companion' for a new knitting project. I must say that I didn't like it in the beginning, it sounded so stereotypical, a new evidence emerges for 20 years old crime, a kidnapping of a little girl. But then it begins to build up, not as much in action at first, but in the development of characters, and by the time you truly like some of them and dislike others (be aware that may change), the action kicks off with a very unexpected 'bang' and, by the end of the book, the plot has more twists than a demented DNA strand (when you read the book you will know that this comparison is very appropriate). If you are looking for a crime book set in Australian realia (the author is an Aussie), something a bit grim and different, go for it!
