I really loved 'The Wife and the Widow' and 'The Nowhere Child', and although I can't say the exact same for 'Wild place', I still enjoyed it. It was quick, entertaining, and I loved that it was set in the 80's. Working out who was involved in the murder wasn't much of a surprise. As the novel drew closer to the end it was quite predictable. However, It was just the read I needed and I still found it very enjoyable. Christian White's novels are easy to read. He has a way of drawing you in and keeping you up late at night turning the pages. I would always recommend his novels to those interested in this genre.

Christian White has become a go-to author for me. I think I'll probably always read whatever he writes.
This book lost a star because of it's predictability and simple characters. It's the kind of book that's been written before, and I didn't feel shocked when plot twists were revealed. Even saying that, I still really enjoyed listening to it.
This is the second Australian book I've read this year set in the 80s. The other was Boy Swallows Universe, I wonder if it's going to be a popular thing...
