Read by Ben Chappell and Harriet Gordon-Anderson, I especially liked the male narrator. 

I was keen to read this as I loved the Murder Rule. 

Flynn was a teenager when her parents were killed in an accident, her sister Kaiya struggled, but seems to turn a corner with the help of a grief counsellor. Kaiya leads a group out into the bush but they fail to return during a bush fire. 

Noah is approached by Flynn who wants help finding out what actually happened to her sister. 

This book comes with some trigger warnings. 

The story is told from both Noah and Flynn’s POV with quite a lot of it with their back stories before they became connected which I found interesting. It’s a very character driven story with the mystery taking a back seat as it’s not a complicated plot line. 

I found it an entertaining, and enjoyable listen.
