“This is the first of Fleur McDonald’s books I’ve read and it won’t be the last. OMG…this book was such a good read. I loved Detective Dave Burrows and Constable Mia Worth, they had a great working relationship and the book really showed rural living at its best and worst with lifelong friendships and the twists and turns that they take.
I couldn’t have predicted the way the story would have turned out, which I love about a great book!” - Shirley
“Hallie is not adjusting to outback life and while her husband Alex is working on the land Hallie is at home with their young daughter and a snake! It literally made me shiver. The characters in this are well rounded and the plot mystery is intense. It was fantastic to see Dave Burrows again and his lovely wife Kim. Hallie's daughter Ruby melted my heart. A intense story with lots of heat!” - Leanne
“McDonald has once again perfectly captured the harsh and remote conditions of rural Australia and the resilience of those who call it home in this powerful rural suspense.
Out in Nowhere is the perfect addition to the Detective Dave Burrows series with Dave this time taking a bit of a backseat. Constable Mia Worth learns to take the lead after she questions the death of the two friends within the same week. What appear to be open and shut cases are not quite what they seem, and Mia is learning to trust her instincts to dig a little deeper under Dave's guidance.
I enjoyed the different perspectives in this book, especially early on, where we have the narratives of Hallie and Mia and then a layer of generational sexism on top.
McDonald continues to deliver in this genre and is another auto buy author for me, where I will gladly buy the book without reading the blurb because I know its going to be a read that I will devour. Overall it was a fabulous rural suspense read that I would highly recommend.” - Emily
