Harpers legions of fans will exult in reading Exiles." --David Baldacci, #1 New York Times bestselling author "Falks investigation is a terrific one, but what makes the book memorable is Harpers skill at plumbing personal mysteries." --New York Times Book Review "Harpers skillful plotting and her ability to create fully fleshed out characters shine in Exiles."--Sun Sentinel "Enthralling ... Once again, Jane Harper triumphs with an intelligent, beautifully crafted crime novel...Harpers characters, old friends with individual secrets in a close-knit community, are masterfully rendered. Her landscape is, as ever, no mere backdrop but rather a vivid panorama central to the drama."--Minneapolis Star-Tribune "I loved Jane Harpers debut novel The Dry and was happy to see the return of her beloved character Aaron Falk...Harpers vivid depictions of Australia make for a rich, moody and atmospheric reading experience." --Karin Slaughter (for The Washington Post) "Investigator Aaron Falk arrives in Australian wine country for his godsons christening, postponed from last year when the community was rocked by a womans disappearance. There are clues theyve missed, planted deftly by Harper in the relationships and psyches of her nuanced characters."--People "Another all-consuming mystery from Harper...Fans will relish Falks intuitive "spider sense" moments here, and they will be amazed at the simultaneously shocking and tender ending."--Booklist, starred review "Though she makes a point of careful plotting and neatly tied-up threads, Harpers books are as much about Australian society and the pressures and dangers of the countrys landscape as they are about finding missing people and solving murders...The ability to spot subtle warning signs of a troubled soul is probably Falks greatest gift as an investigator, leading him to look for answers about Kims fate very close to home."--Washington Post "With this book, Harper may well have given her legions of readers exactly what they have been waiting for: a beautifully observed crime novel about regional life featuring the reticent and endearing federal policeman, Aaron Falk...Quietly and inevitably, the secrets and deceptions are unraveled as Falk finds himself deftly woven into the weft of this small community. In Exiles, Falk may at last have come home."--Sydney Morning Herald "Stellar...Writing at the top of her game, Harper effectively uses whodunit tropes to explore her characters hidden lives. Readers interested in literate and nuanced mysteries will be eager to see more of Falk."--Publishers Weekly, starred review "Jane Harpers lyrically written, immersive and slow-burning mystery Exiles is a powerful send-off for beloved character Aaron Falk."--BookPage, starred review "An outstanding crime novel, rich in mystery and atmosphere and full of heart. Utterly immersive, captivating and beautifully written; I lost myself completely within its pages and was bereft when it ended. Jane Harper is a rare jewel of an author and Exiles deserves to be huge. It blew me away. Its my book of the year so far." --C L Taylor, Sunday Times bestselling author "Jane Harper has once again produced an ingenious, moving and hugely satisfying mystery. This is crime writing perfection."-- C. M. Ewan, #1 internationally bestselling author "Fine writing and addictive storytelling." --Ann Cleeves, New York Times bestselling author "A truly wonderful read. Rich in detail, landscape and character and deeply satisfying on all levels." --Sarah Hilary, award-winning author "The kind of crime novel you move into rather than just reading it - a wholly absorbing set of mysteries, a cast of characters that feels entirely real and a setting so vivid you can practically smell the breeze through the bushland. Aaron Falk is the still center of the novel, a quiet presence like no other in crime fiction. Exceptional in every way." --Jane Casey, author of the Maeve Kerrigan novels Details ISBN1250235367 Author Jane Harper Pages 368 Year 2024 ISBN-13 9781250235367 Format Paperback Publication Date 2024-02-06 Place of Publication New York Country of Publication United States AU Release Date 2024-02-06 NZ Release Date 2024-02-06 US Release Date 2024-02-06 UK Release Date 2024-02-06 Publisher Flatiron Books Imprint Flatiron Books Language English ISBN-10 1250235367 Audience General We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
