The Survivors
Kieran Elliott returns with his young family to the Tasmanian coastal town where a catastrophic storm killed his brother and another man years earlier. The discovery of a young woman's body on the beach revives local suspicion, guilt, and questions about a girl who disappeared during the same storm. Kieran's memories of the rescue attempt that defined his life become inseparable from the new investigation and the stories his friends have protected. Moody and reflective, this mystery suits readers who enjoy seaside towns, old disasters, missing women, and protagonists learning that surviving a tragedy does not mean understanding it.
