I was looking forward to this book mainly because it’s set in Tasmania, my sister-in-law’s favourite place, And even though I’ve never been there, Harper has a remarkable knack of creating a sense of place and it was easy to imagine the small beach community. However, I found the story slow and kept losing concentration, making it necessary to put it down for stretches. It became a long read. ( ) I wasn't able to connect with the characters as I did with all the other Harper books I've read, but it was still a good compelling mystery that kept me guessing. Guessing wrongly, as it turns out in the end but the clues were there if I'd picked up on them. Audiobook via Audible. Steve Shanahan provided a good performance, but I had trouble at times distinguishing between the characters when it was dialogue-only. While I had mixed feelings about Harper's Aaron Falk series (I liked the first, not so much the second), this book kept my attention throughout. Harper returns to what she does best with THE SURVIVORS: a compelling small-town atmosphere, rich in detail and brimming with mystery. I liked the Australian landscape, the harshness of the ocean, and the way nature itself feels like a character in this novel. I particularly appreciated Harper's exploration of relationship dynamics, especially within families. The strength of this book lies in the author's analysis of the aftereffects of grief and the way it impacts everyone differently. In addition, I liked the slower pace of the novel and the fact that it's deeply driven by character explorations and growth. I'm looking forward to seeing where Jane Harper takes us next! Not as gripping as the first Jane Harper novels I read. Slow to start, and then left me with the niggly feeling in the back of my brain tat I had come across a very similar storyline before. Can't remember if it was a book plot line or a TV show. I was expecting a read as fast paced as the Aaron Folk novels, but I was disappointed. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
