Welcome to Litsy!

“Huh?” I say, not because I didn‘t hear her, but because I‘m not ready to go there.”

-I poke fun of my husband for doing this when he doesn‘t want to answer me. “Huh?” Some people will say “hmm?” Or “What‘s that?” Drives me nuts lol you heard me don‘t pretend you didn‘t!

You‘ve got to do something you‘ve never done, to have something you‘ve never had.

Will definitely hold your interest, but I hated the ending. Falk heads to his hometown for the funeral of his high school best and his family. Luke is believed to be a murder suicide, but Falk finds discrepancies. Cooperation from townsfolk is scarce. They all believe Falk murdered his girlfriend when they were in school and the real murderer was never found.

I've listened to these Aaron Falk books all in the wrong order but I don't think it matters.
Steve Shanahan's narration is to Jane Harper as Kimberley Farr's is to Elizabeth Strout.
It's a dark enough tale from the get-go, but you knew that already. (I guessed the "who" but not the "why".)

My hubs went up north for Easter weekend hunting. He very proudly surprised me by bringing these home for me. He doesn‘t read, but they‘re his taste if he would. I, however, don‘t want to read a single one and feel terrible about it. But come on man, you couldn‘t just go for the easy win with some romance? 😂

I enjoyed it. It‘s a little too long, but worth the read.

This was pretty good! A teeny bit too long, but a good, easy read. And I even guessed the “bad guy” too, which I never do 😝 (23)

Det. Aaron Falk returns to his small hometown in Australia to attend the funerals of his childhood friend, Luke, and Luke‘s wife and young son. It‘s thought that Luke killed his family and then himself. The town is experiencing a 2-year drought, putting everyone on edge. Falk teams up with the local detective to find out what really happened, and in the process, dregs up another murder case from 20 years ago - one that drove Falk out of town. 👇🏻
