J P Pomare recommends
After You Were Gone (2022)
Vikki Wakefield
"After You Were Gone cleaves open ideas of friendship and family, revealing the complex inner workings of our closest relationships. In doing so, Wakefield achieves what all good crime writers aspire to do: she forces the reader to stress-test their own sense of morality. She looks you in the eye and asks what would you do if the unthinkable happened? What would you sacrifice? How far would you go? At once tense and atmospheric, After You Were Gone is also brilliantly plotted and populated with complex characters. An exciting new voice in Australian crime."
The Mother Fault (2021)
Kate Mildenhall
"Images a world as terrifying and visionary as Margaret Atwood's Gilead."
The Safe Place (2020)
Anna Downes
"A brilliantly atmospheric novel that keeps you equally gripped and unsettled from page one. Starkly original and with an alarmingly plausible premise, this is destined to be a bestseller."
