 Finished: The Survivors (Harper) A literal page-turner...the story of a 30 year old man who takes his wife and baby back to the beach town on Tasmania where he grew up to visit his parents, bringing back the memories of an accidental tragedy that happened 12 years before that has burdened him with guilt. Of course, the day after he's back in town, another tragedy occurs, bringing both the past and the relationships of everyone involved, past and present, right back into the limelight. A book that keeps you guessing who could be the perpetrator, and more importantly, one that smacks you in the face with the male objectification of women, starting at an early age and seemingly condoned unwittingly as "normal teenage boy" behavior. Not going to give away the plot line on this one. This is the third book I've read by Jane Harper and I've really enjoyed them all. :-)
