A review by girlnextshore
The Dry by Jane Harper

3.0

A bit of a slow burn to start with, which actually is quite clever in reflecting the small fictitional country town of Kiewarra and its community. But I was gripped with the story and there were characters to root for.

The whodunnit arc kept me changing my mind as to who actually really killed the family and what went on. I wasn't so convinced with my original suspect until much later, which makes up for a good thriller/mystery.

The second story arc, digging Aaron Falk's past, was also quite compelling although the ending to that arc fell a bit flat for me.

Good mystery overall.
