About this listen
The compelling new novel from Jane Harper, the New York Times bestselling author of The Dry.
Kieran Elliott's life changed forever on the day a reckless mistake led to devastating consequences.
The guilt that still haunts him resurfaces during a visit with his young family to the small coastal community he once called home.
Kieran's parents are struggling in a town where fortunes are forged by the sea. Between them all is his absent brother, Finn.
When a body is discovered on the beach, long-held secrets threaten to emerge. A sunken wreck, a missing girl, and questions that have never washed away ...

Another Jane Harper Memorable Story
Excellent narration.
Despite a slightly slow start, I soon became engrossed and could not stop listening - yet feeling that, on finishing the book, I wanted more - not because the end was unclear but because reading this book was so enjoyable with that sense of involvement.
Jane Harper has the amazing ability to make the reader part of the events. Her characters can be seen and heard by the reader; their feelings can be felt and their fears, curiosity, frustration and determination to discover more - are shared.
Highly enjoyable. Looking forward to Jane's next book.

Great listen
Really enjoyed The Survivors. Did not see the ending coming at all. A very evocative story.

Not as good as previous novels
Didn’t engage with this one as with Jane Harpers previous works which I have really enjoyed. This one meanders and then wraps up really quickly. Enjoy Jane’s descriptive prose which creates a visual illusion and Steve is a great narrator

I finished the book and immediately started from the beginning to fill in all the details I had missed.
Can’t wait to see the movie!!!

Dull
Predictable and not engaging. There are plenty of great contemporary reads out there and this isn’t one of them.

Another great Australian Novel
The narration was very easy on the ears, the story though a little weak at times kept me coming back for more and the setting felt very familiar. I had to backtrack a few times as I’m often busy and listening… well worth my time.

Not as good as her others, but still good
This one is not as good as the others, and has a rather trite predictable and weak ending. But it’s still quite good and worth the listen. A solid B.

The Survivors
It never slackens as you live life in a small Australian Seaside town
You feel the sun and beach as lives collide with those who stayed and those who left for life in the City and returned to a life that is stable but challenging
Jane Harper has captured the Australian Psyche in all its frailty
