I truly love an Australian Crime/Mystery fiction novel. This was so great. If you love Christian White or Jane Harper, you’ll love Hayley Scrivenor too. This book kept you wanting to read more, digging for more information. I found some parts a little slow and boring, including the end, although the ending is what set this apart from other crime/mystery books. Most crime/mystery books stop once it’s been solved, but this one showed us all of the main characters future.
Graphic: Child death
