Publisher's Summary

Freya thought she could relax when Ryan's best mate Jamie got engaged to her best friend Hannah. Two couples, four friends – what could be better than that? But a day before the wedding, Freya is torn between keeping the peace or blowing it up.

Hannah's perfect wedding is hours away and she's daydreaming of a honeymoon in Tahiti and starting the family she longs for when she hears the first-responder sirens. Is it a grass fire? Worse? And why aren't Ryan or Jamie answering their phones?

When a car veers off the road with devastating consequences, the small wheatbelt town of Garringarup is left reeling, but no one's world is more shattered than Hannah and Freya's.

As disturbing details surrounding the accident emerge and questions pile up, ugly secrets rise to the surface.

Mystery, lies and scandal – it's soon obvious nothing is as it seems in this small town...

Miscategorized and disappointing.

This book is a domestic drama, and, despite what the publishers claim, is not a crime fiction, historical fiction or a romantic suspense, nor is it about women sleuths. How a book can be so miscategorized is a bloody mystery. Don't mislead readers to attract them to your book. We are fairly intelligent and will figure it out--sadly, only after we've bought the book. In general, the story is about two couples who struggle with wanting to have and wanting not to have children, and about marriage and commitment, and family life in general. It's not bad for what it is except for the length--which is much too long, especially with only a single narrator. The whole business of babies as acquisitions is distasteful to me but I know it's a popular theme right now, as GenZ teeters on the edge of anticipated parenthood. I, however, was looking forward to a real Aussie mystery/crime fiction, and this is not that.
