Australian narrator Stephen Shanahan returns for another knockout
performance...It's a slow and bleak affair, but no less enthralling than
Harper's and Shanahan's previous efforts. -- AudioFile Magazine,

**
Two brothers meet in the remote Australian outback when the third
brother is found dead, in this stunning new standalone audiobook from
New York Times bestseller 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.
Dark, suspenseful, and deeply atmospheric, The Lost Man is the highly
anticipated next audiobook from the bestselling and award-winning Jane
Harper, author of The Dry and Force of Nature.
Praise for The Lost Man:
"In addition to the complicated, constantly changing plot, with Jane
Harper's brilliant writing and Shanahan's outstanding narration we also
experience the stifling heat and brutal oppression of the outback, how
it keeps hold of those who live there, drives them, protects and
sometimes kills them. -- SoundCommentary
"Harper's masterful narrative places readers right in the middle of a
desolate landscape that's almost as alien as the moon's surface...A
twisty slow burner by an author at the top of her game." -- Kirkus,
starred review
All at once enthralling...Book by book, [Harper is] creating her own
vivid and complex account of the outback. -- New York Times Book
