About The Event
SINCE HER AWARD-WINNING DEBUT THE DRY WAS PUBLISHED IN 2016, JANE HARPER HAS SOLD 3 MILLION COPIES WORLDWIDE ACROSS 40 TERRITORIES
We see what we expect to see. At a busy community festival on a warm spring night, a baby lies alone in her pram, her mother having vanished into the crowds. A year later, Kim Gillespie's absence casts a long shadow as her friends and loved ones gather in the heart of South Australian wine country to welcome a new addition to the family. Federal investigator Aaron Falk is joining the celebrations. But as he soaks up life in the lush valley, he begins to suspect this tight-knit group may be more fractured than it seems. Exiles is a propulsive and thrilling page-turner filled with mystery, lush storytelling and dark undertones. Jane Harper writes with nuance and skill about grief, secrets, family and what it means to be haunted by things left unsaid.
Jane Harper is the internationally bestselling author of The Dry, Force of Nature, The Lost Man and The Survivors and has won numerous awards. She worked as a print journalist for thirteen years both in Australia and the UK, and now lives in Melbourne with her husband and two children.
