Lee and Victoria weren’t the only ones to love ‘Wake” by Shelley Burr… Here is what the QBD crew thought:
Debut author Shelley Burr has entered the book scene with “Wake” – an incredible novel set in rural Australia.
This story takes place in Nannine, a small town in New South Wales. It’s a town with one sinister claim to fame – the unsolved disappearance of Evelyn McCreery. Evelyn was taken nineteen years ago from the bedroom she shared with her twin sister, Mina. Since then, Mina’s life has been defined by the intense and ongoing public interest in her sister’s case. The million-dollar reward her mother established to solve the disappearance has never been paid out. Now, Private Investigator Lane Holland has his eye on the unclaimed money, but his intentions to solve the case may be darker than anyone expected.
This book is atmospheric, hugely compelling, and wonderfully descriptive. If you love Australian crime fiction stories that keep you wondering “who did it” and “what happened” – Shelley Burr has written your new favourite book!
