Story
During a broiling heatwave, the inner circle of a high-profile charity attend a critical meeting at White Ash Ridge, a small hotel nestled in the Australian wilderness. As the temperature rises, a body is found lying in the thick bush, bludgeoned to death. One of the four remaining guests is a murderer - but who, and why, is a mystery. Detective Dana Russo knows the national spotlight will be sharply focused on the case. The charity was formed when the founders' teenage son was killed after intervening in a vicious assault - sparking public outrage and a damning verdict on the investigation.

When Emily's beautiful cousin Aspen goes missing somewhere in the Outback, no one seems to take it seriously, not even the police. After all, Aspen has a history of drug use and a string of broken relationships to her name. But Emily knows that her disappearance is totally out of character, so she books a flight to the Northern Territory to find her. Emily's search takes her south of Darwin to every road stop and tourist trap she can find, but the only person who turns up is the last person she expected to see, her ex-husband Ben. But there is a violent killer on the loose.

Publisher's Summary
For fans of The Dark Lake and The Dry comes this taut psychological suspense novel set in a dramatic Tasmanian landscape from best-selling author Sarah Barrie.
A lonely widow, a sinister act, a remote mansion with a dark past....
After the violent death of her husband, Callie Jones retreats to a cottage in the grounds of an old mansion in Tasmania. The relative remoteness of the place and the wild beauty of the Tasmanian landscape are a balm to her shattered nerves, and the locals seem friendly, particularly horseman Connor Atherton and his siblings at the nearby property, Calico Lodge.
But all is not well: The old mansion has a sinister past, one associated with witchcraft and murder. As Callie is threatened by odd events in the night and strange dreams overtake her sleep, she begins to doubt her own sanity. What's really going on beneath the surface of this apparently peaceful town? Are her friends and neighbours really who they seem? As events escalate, Callie starts to realise that the mansion may hold the key to unlocking the mystery, but the truth might have as much power to destroy as it does to save.
"Utterly addictive suspense and riveting storytelling set in a darkly gothic Tasmania." (best-selling author of The Dark Lake, Sarah Bailey)

Loved it!
Far fetched... yes... but its a story. I let myself get swept up in the story and not worry about reality. I thought it was brilliant. Suspenseful, a bit eerie, interesting subject matter. good solid characters. Binge listened over a few days. the only minor negative was with the narrator, if you listened to the first book with calico Mountain characters it didn't suit logan's character to have an odd bogan accent. Other than that I think the narrator did a great job.

Sucks you in!
A little unusual for Sarah to be a little slow at the beginning but not long before you are sucked in and can’t stop listening. If you have listened to the first book relating to Calico Mountain it’s a little frustrating hearing dramatic voice changes for the primary characters you fell in love with, from the first book, but once you get past that it’s just as intriguing and captivating as her other books. I just love this author and can’t wait to read/listen to Deadman’s Track.

Great Story, Spoiled by the Narrator
I loved this story and Sarah Barrie’s writing but for me, I was so confused as to how the audiobook could have been released with the disjointed narration. Its listening to a shopping list being read. The narrator adds full stops midway through sentences and puts emphasis on the wrong words. It sounds as if the narrator is reading the novel for the first time distractedly whilst following her favourite Netflix drama on silent. It was so disappointing

Jesus, this had me on the edge of me seat a few times. I would have loved a few more descriptive words for the romance parts ;) The twists. Awesome.

Really enjoyed it
I really enjoyed the story and the narration was pretty good. My only issue with the narration (and this applies to all narrators) is that I often wonder why they don't listen to earlier novels in a series to at least have the voices/accents follow on. In the last story Indy was American and Logan very manly and in this novel Indy is Aussie and she made Logan sound like an Aussie Peewee Herman. Apart from these tiny issues I really enjoyed the story.

Not as good as her first book.
I loved Blood River and really looked forward to Devil’s Lair. Overall I really enjoyed it, but found the ‘ocker’ twang to Logan’s voice disappointing - certainly not how he sounded in the first book. Indi’s American-twang had also completely disappeared.
I know it’s fiction, but some of the plot twists and connections between characters were a bit of a stretch.
Let’s hope Book 3 is good!
