Synopsis:

Kieran Elliott’s life changed forever on the day a reckless mistake led to devastating consequences.

The guilt that still haunts him resurfaces during a visit with his young family to the small coastal town he once called home.

Kieran’s parents are struggling in a community which is bound, for better or worse, to the sea, that is both a lifeline and a threat. Between them all is his absent brother, Finn.

When a body is discovered on the beach, long-held secrets threaten to emerge. A sunken wreck, a missing girl, and questions that have never washed away…

Review:

One thing about Jane Harper that I think needs to be discussed – she is one hell of a good writer!

Harper has a way of delivering a story and imprinting the incredible story in your mind with her creative use of descriptions from a very few words. The way she creates characters with light details of their backstories to enhance them realistic and relatable! Time and time again, Harper takes us for a wild ride and The Survivors is no exception!

This addictive read is based in Tasmania on a beautiful coastal setting where Kieran has just returned to his hometown with his new family just as ta murder takes place. Putting the hole town on alert and highly suspicious.

This murder mystery will have to you on the edge of your seat and turning every page frantically to find the answer. Harper – you bloody legend!!

But lets sum this up…

Was this story epic? YES

Was it enticing? YES

Was it fast paced? YES

Will you love the characters? YES
