5.0 out of 5 stars Time and Consequences
Reviewed in Australia on 31 January 2022
Verified Purchase
This story unfolds at a small town pace, where the consequences of a single horrific action, on a single night, spreads forward through time and across generations like the butterfly affect leading to cyclones. It is sad, tragic and ultimately an uplifting tale of fear, sorrow and unexpected redemption.

5.0 out of 5 stars an amazing read
Reviewed in Australia on 24 May 2022
Verified Purchase
This author has been done a disservice by winning crime novel of the year because this book is so much more on so many levels. I was initially sceptical as it seemed disjointed but persevere as the author masterfully builds each character and his plot. I was moved by his characters, their trials, tribulations and sacrifices. I could not put it down and was rewarded with a story so masterfully crafted and a plot that will have you guessing until the end. Keep the tissues handy as you will also be moved and at times tearfully happy as the plot unfolds. A great read.

A fantastic read that really does go from the end to the beginning.
A story that keeps you invested, with characters that need you to support them and listen and learn their journey.

4.0 out of 5 stars An Intriguing Human Story

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel. The quick witted and acerbic character of Duchess is as memorable as any protagonist that I have encountered in the last decade.

5.0 out of 5 stars A beautiful book with outstanding characters
Reviewed in Australia on 14 March 2022

This is the type of book you don’t want to end. The characters are flawed individuals who are strong and weak; good and bad, just like those in a Greek Tragedy
I loved every page

This novel is so, so sad, with a cast of beautifully drawn characters struggling to live a life of meaning. A number of puzzles and dilemmas will keep readers thinking for a long time after they’ve finished.
