After getting a note demanding his presence, Federal Agent Aaron Falk arrives in his hometown for the first time in decades to attend the funeral of his best friend, Luke. Twenty years ago when Falk was accused of murder, Luke was his alibi. Falk and his father fled under a cloud of suspicion, saved from prosecution only because of Luke’s steadfast claim that the boys had been together at the time of the crime. But now more than one person knows they didn’t tell the truth back then, and Luke is dead.
Amid the worst drought in a century, Falk and the local detective question what really happened to Luke. As Falk reluctantly investigates to see if there’s more to Luke’s death than there seems to be, long-buried mysteries resurface, as do the lies that have haunted them. And Falk will find that small towns have always hidden big secrets.

評分圖書標籤: 懸疑 澳大利亞 英文原版 罪案 小說 thriller 2019 austrlian-lit
第一次看以澳大利亞貧瘠、乾旱的小鎮作為背景的驚悚作品。正敘倒敘交織並不新鮮,但有一股傷感縈繞不去,一種溫暖掩捲難忘。
評分緻鬱係
評分四星半的老派偵探小說,對比近幾年的girl係列,Harper算是三觀最正的瞭,沒厭女情節,沒變態psycho,沒泥潭般的陰霾,至少感官衝擊還算剋製。懸疑主要在文字間築成,在迴憶與現實中交互推進。能看齣作者環境記者的經曆,乾旱的場景無處不在,衰敗的農村、局促的社交圈、因乾旱而處在崩潰邊緣的人們,帶著密不可知的過往與無以憑靠的未來前行...很多人在澳洲火災中重溫瞭Harper的這部處女作,讀罷會期待她的新作
評分R4 read by Richard Goulding. 麻木
評分這類書真的不是我的菜。節奏安排不是很好,一大半的篇幅都在鋪墊,但散落其間的綫索又太刻意,導緻結局既不意外也不精彩。人物刻畫的很膚淺,好像就是把一個簡單暴力的案件新聞扯成瞭一部書。還不如我關注的分析真實案件的“沒藥花園”公眾號文章好看。
