| Short and wonderful. Proof that it's more powerful to say everything in 118 pages, than to extend it over the more common novel length of three times that. As a writer, I plan to write shorter after reading this incredible story. It was a recommended ...more | |

| Imaginative, inventive, entertaining and clever. I liked how it blended historical fiction with a contemporary storyline, and I really liked the personality of the mountain. I feel like the author happily broke or ignored a lot of 'literary rules' an ...more | |

| Late to the party on this one. Everyone kept raving about it, which sometimes makes me slow to jump onboard! It's excellent, read it in two sittings. Very interesting. If I was writing it, I would have changed the last few pages slightly. But still a ...more | |

| Islands make a great setting in crime novels. Mysterious, often remote with an insular, self-sufficient community, they’re an investigator’s nightmare, and the perfect refuge for people who need their secrets to stay buried. Wyeebo Island offers all ...more | |
“In this garden, the air was sweet and clean, like the cool water running in the creek. Beyond the garden was the rainforest, a damp cathedral of fragrant myrtle and sassafras, sprawling mosses and ancient lichen... There was only one road into Vanishing Falls... the road meandered through hilly green pastures where black-and-white cows grazed, past pretty weatherboard farmhouses with splendid man ferns out front, thick hedges, and rose gardens.”

“There were two rabbits nibbling the green tufts growing around a fence post. She tried to creep up and pat them, but they scampered away before she could get close.”

“And I think about what it is to be too old and how I don't want to get there and wish I had spent my life feeling happier with what I'd had, rather than always feeling bad about what I'd done.”

“Jack had other friends, men with whom he played golf, went sailing, or had long business lunches. Some were farmers he had known since he was a boy, others were friends from boarding school or work connections. They were friends who required something of him, a level of either intellectual or professional engagement. With Cliff he could relax. It wasn't so much that he could be more himself. Rather, with Cliff, he could be nothing.”

“If you think about where murderers hide bodies, it's bound to be a place they know. You wouldn't drive to a new place. Too risky. It would make sense for the place where you dispose of a body to be close by. You would choose a place that you've been before, even if it was years ago.”

“Burying a person in the rainforest is like throwing a body off a boat into the ocean. It's too dense to search...”

“The air was fragrant with the cinnamon-scented sassafras bark. A flock of birds, white on the blue sky, fell like they had lost their breath in unison.”
