Produktbeschreibung

Voted Number One, Best Books of 2022 on Goodreads!

Longlisted in the Mystery and Mayhem Chanticleer Book awards.

In a small town in the West Australian wheatbelt, a ramshackle house and town rebel once provided refuge for gutsy orphan, Lola.

Lola makes a homecoming for a funeral and discovers a town reeling with the return of an insidious attacker who terrorises young women, and a familiar boy who freshens bittersweet memories.

Alone in the old house, Lola notices a neighbour's strange nocturnal activities, as she unearths a memento from her foster mother. The gift leads to a long-forgotten murder and a dancer called Lorrelai. As Lola digs deeper, she finds disturbing connections between past and present.

It's 1971 and Lorrelai, pregnant and homeless, struggles to make a new life in a caravan park. Drawn to a troubled couple with a tiny baby, events lead to a tragedy which spawns secrets lasting decades.

As Lola gets close to the truth, so too those who wish to keep it hidden, forcing Lola to draw on a lifetime of survival skills to find her way home.

Where the Crawdads Sing meets The Dry in a page turner full of twists set in the harsh beauty of the Australian landscape.

"…a fascinating, hypnotic tale of survival, love, and finding home, set in the harshly gorgeous landscape of Western Australia." - Blue Ink Review
