I have read Jane Harper's other two books and they were excellent. The Dry is the first of her books I have listened to instead of actually reading and like her others it was fantastic. You feel like you are in Australia experiencing exactly what her characters are …more experiencing. It is the story of a death and the family dynamics associated with it. It has love and hurt and and sadness and joy. And all that comes with exceptional writing. I really loved it. (less)
