Story
When a young man is found gruesomely murdered in a London houseboat, it triggers questions about three women who knew him. Laura is the troubled one-night-stand last seen in the victim’s home. Carla is his grief-stricken aunt, already mourning the recent death of yet another family member. And Miriam is the nosy neighbor clearly keeping secrets from the police. Three women with separate connections to the victim. Three women who are – for different reasons – simmering with resentment. Who are, whether they know it or not, burning to right the wrongs done to them.

Story
Jess needs a fresh start. She’s broke and alone, and she’s just left her job under less than ideal circumstances. Her half brother, Ben, didn’t sound thrilled when she asked if she could crash with him for a bit, but he didn’t say no, and surely everything will look better from Paris. Only when she shows up - to find a very nice apartment, could Ben really have afforded this? - he’s not there. The longer Ben stays missing, the more Jess starts to dig into her brother’s situation, and the more questions she has.

Back in 1985, Frank Mackey was a nineteen-year-old kid with a dream of escaping his family's cramped flat on Faithful Place and running away to London with his girl, Rosie Daly. But on the night they were supposed to leave, Rosie didn't show. Frank took it for granted that she'd dumped him-probably because of his alcoholic father, nutcase mother, and generally dysfunctional family. He never went home again. Neither did Rosie. Then, twenty-two years later, Rosie's suitcase shows up.

The story opens with the apparently accidental drowning of a sixth form student in the Norfolk countryside. As a matter of routine, or so it seems, the case passes across the desk of Detective Sergeant Smith, recently returned to work after an internal investigation into another case that has led to tensions between officers at Kings Lake police headquarters. As an ex-DCI, Smith could have retired by now, and it is clear that some of his superiors wish that he would do so.

Jane Neal, a local fixture in the tiny hamlet of Three Pines, just north of the U.S. border, has been found dead in the woods.

Young Tom French was found dead, lying in a marsh on the Norfolk coast, with his head bashed in and his binoculars still around his neck. One of the best birders in England, Tom had put the village of Rushy on the birdwatching map. Everyone liked him. Or did they? George Palmer-Jones, an elderly birdwatcher who decided quietly to look into the brutal crime, discovered mixed feelings aplenty. Still, he remained baffled by a deed that could have been motivated by thwarted love, pure envy, or something else altogether.

Two brothers meet in the remote Australian outback when the third brother is found dead in this stunning new stand-alone audiobook from New York Times best-seller Jane Harper.
Two brothers meet at the remote fence line separating their cattle ranches in the lonely outback. In an isolated belt of Western Australia, they are each other’s nearest neighbor, their homes a four-hour drive apart. The third brother lies dead at their feet. Something caused Cam, the middle child who had been in charge of the family homestead, to die alone in the middle of nowhere.
So the eldest brother returns with his younger sibling to the family property and those left behind. But the fragile balance of the ranch is threatened. Amid the grief, suspicion starts to take hold, and the eldest brother begins to wonder if more than one among them is at risk of crumbling as the weight of isolation bears down on them all.
Dark, suspenseful, and deeply atmospheric, The Lost Man is the highly anticipated next audiobook from the best-selling and award-winning Jane Harper, author of The Dry and Force of Nature.
Praise for The Lost Man:
“What an extraordinary novel: part family drama, part indelible ode to the Outback - a thriller as forceful and atmospheric as a brewing storm. Harper works miracles. We’re lucky to witness them.” (A.J. Finn, number-one New York Times best-selling author of The Woman in the Window)
Critic Reviews
"All at once enthralling.... Book by book, [Harper is] creating her own vivid and complex account of the outback." (New York Times Book Review)
"Australian narrator Stephen Shanahan returns for another knockout performance...It's a slow and bleak affair, but no less enthralling than Harper's and Shanahan's previous efforts." (AudioFile Magazine, Earphones Award winner)
“In addition to the complicated, constantly changing plot, with Jane Harper's brilliant writing and Shanahan's outstanding narration we also experience the stifling heat and brutal oppression of the outback, how it keeps hold of those who live there, drives them, protects and sometimes kills them." (SoundCommentary)

Excellent
I love Jane Harper's writing style. It isn't a grip you by the edge of the seat, but a slow steady story where you learn about the characters in the book and about what took place in their lives leading to the core of the story. I'm looking forward to her next book!

I was a tad disappointed at first that Falk was not a character in this story. Jane sure made up for that! Nathan, Liz, Ilse, are all normal people thrust into terrible circumstances. I adore a good thriller and got even more than I bargained for because this story made me experience a wide range of emotions, including my favorite - Hope! Thanks again Jane and Stephen!

Great story, remarkable narration.
This was my first contact with a work by Jane Harper. What a pleasant surprise. The story flows very smoothly and the plot unfolds naturally. While that happens you learn more and more about the many characters and about life in the Outback. In the end I felt like I had been there, rambled around the place and spoken to the people.
But most of all I was extremely impressed by the narration. I've heard many books and many narrators. Some very good, others not so much so. Most of the time they sound exactly like it is: a person reading a book. Stephen Shanahan didn't. Especially in the dialogues, I could sense he had studied the text and figured out the best way of saying it. I felt like I was hearing a movie performed by a very good actor. Even simple things like "OK. Thanks." are said with a rhythm and an intonation that make it sound absolutely real.

Tennessee Williams of the Outback
This was a wonderful and satisfying book, an all-time favorite for me. Characters and plot were richly developed. One of the main characters is the Outback itself, It is difficult to conceive of anywhere else in the world where the events described could have taken place. The Narrator and writing were so good that I felt that I was watching a play rather than listening to a book. In fact, I think Jane Harper can be favorably compared to Tennessee Williams, This book had a whole bunch of Cats on a very Hot Tin Roof!

Beautifully Written & Performed, Un-put-down-able
This really is one of the best books I've listened to in years. I'm not often motivated to write a review, but this is one of those times. This is a compelling, dramatic mystery and I felt a real urgency to see it resolved, but at the same time it's a careful character study and a subtle family drama. The beautifully described Australian outback landscape becomes a character in its own right, and the performance by Stephen Shanahan is absolutely wonderful.

As good if not a tad better than #1.
A great story, well read, that explores the costs of isolation and abuse as it spins a satisfying who dun' it. Not too psychologically mawkish to mar narrative of the outback. Literate well written mystery--highly recommend.
