INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER
"I love Jane Harper's Australia-based mysteries." --Stephen King
Two brothers meet in the remote Australian outback when the third
brother is found dead, in this stunning new standalone novel from Jane
Harper
Brothers Nathan and Bub Bright meet for the first time in months at the
remote fence line separating their cattle ranches in the lonely outback.
Their third brother, Cameron, lies dead at their feet.
In an isolated belt of Australia, their homes a three-hour drive apart,
the brothers were one another's nearest neighbors. Cameron was the
middle child, the one who ran the family homestead. But something made
him head out alone under the unrelenting sun.
Nathan, Bub and Nathan's son return to Cameron's ranch and to those left
behind by his passing: his wife, his daughters, and his mother, as well
as their long-time employee and two recently hired seasonal workers.
While they grieve Cameron's loss, suspicion starts to take hold, and
Nathan is forced to examine secrets the family would rather leave in the
past. Because if someone forced Cameron to his death, the isolation of
the outback leaves few suspects.
A powerful and brutal story of suspense set against a formidable
landscape, The Lost Man confirms Jane Harper, author of The Dry and
Force of Nature, is one of the best new voices in writing today.
