The Tilt

De: Chris Hammer

Narrado por: Dorje Swallow

A stunning thriller from the bestselling author of Scrublands and Treasure & Dirt.

A man runs for his life in a forest. A woman plans sabotage. A body is unearthed.

Newly minted homicide detective Nell Buchanan returns to her home town, annoyed at being assigned a decades-old murder — a 'file and forget'.

But this is no ordinary cold case, as the discovery of more bodies triggers a chain of escalating events in the present day. As Nell starts to join the pieces together, she begins to question how well she truly knows those closest to her. Could her own family be implicated in the crimes?

The nearer Nell comes to uncovering the secrets of the past, the more dangerous the present becomes for her, as she battles shadowy assailants and sinister forces. Can she survive this harrowing investigation and what price will she have to pay for the truth? Gripping and atmospheric, The Tilt is a stunning multi-layered novel by the acclaimed and award-winning author of the international bestsellers Scrublands, Silver, Trust and Treasure & Dirt.

"Chris Hammer is a great writer ... a leader in Australian noir." MICHAEL CONNELLY

Generations of family

I loved this story and the fact that it included history of Australia, of the war and of life now.

Complex story, pay attention

Really enjoyed the complexity of this story - keeping track of all the family characters was a challenge for me, but loved it.

WoW!

All can say without giving any of it away is WoW! Great story, well developed characters and more surprise twists than any book I've listen to this year. 5 Stars all the way!!

One of the best mystery novels I've ever read. Highly recommend!!

This mystery novel is very complex and compelling. At first it was confusing because there are so many characters involved and I had to get a notepad and write things down to keep people straight - but if you stick with it I think you won't regret it and will find it very satisfying. It reminds me of Where the Crawdads Sing.

Would love to see more from Chris Hammer

I enjoyed the two books available on Audible-- Scrublands and The Tilt, but there is a book released in 2023 called either The Seven or Cover the Bones that is not available. The books I have listened to are well written, interesting, suspenseful and take u to Australia. Please make more of his books available.

Gripping and beautifully written

Chris Hammer, like Jane Harper, writes landscape and terrain into his books like another character. You can smell, feel and hear his ‘forest’. His plot winds and undulates through this gripping read.
I loved this book and the reader was brilliant - earthy like the landscape, a great Australian voice that works well with the characters of the story.
This is highly recommended to keep you alert and on edge through a very long car journey.

Incredible story and writing.

One of the best books I have listened to in quite some time. Felt like I was there for all of it. Excellent narration. Looking to for more from Chris Hammer.

Fun story well read.

A lot of interesting twists and turns in this story. I got a little lost at times with who was who but I can blame that on listening while working. Looking forward to seeing more titles from this author added to Audible.
