Two brothers meet in the remote Australian outback when the third brother is found dead in this stunning new stand-alone audiobook from New York Times best-seller Jane Harper.

Two brothers meet at the remote fence line separating their cattle ranches in the lonely outback. In an isolated belt of Western Australia, they are each other’s nearest neighbor, their homes a four-hour drive apart. The third brother lies dead at their feet. Something caused Cam, the middle child who had been in charge of the family homestead, to die alone in the middle of nowhere.

So the eldest brother returns with his younger sibling to the family property and those left behind. But the fragile balance of the ranch is threatened. Amid the grief, suspicion starts to take hold, and the eldest brother begins to wonder if more than one among them is at risk of crumbling as the weight of isolation bears down on them all.

Dark, suspenseful, and deeply atmospheric, The Lost Man is the highly anticipated next audiobook from the best-selling and award-winning Jane Harper, author of The Dry and Force of Nature.

Praise for The Lost Man:

“What an extraordinary novel: part family drama, part indelible ode to the Outback - a thriller as forceful and atmospheric as a brewing storm. Harper works miracles. We’re lucky to witness them.” (A.J. Finn, number-one New York Times best-selling author of The Woman in the Window)

A Gut-wrenching story told beautifully

Harper's story grabs the reader from the start and never lets go. She is a master story writer, tackling one the most difficult and prevalent social issues of our time. The narrator is perfect. I would also like to thank Ms. Harper for voicing the experiences of womyn like me. We are grateful to be heard.

Nowhere near the Dry

I think my review is somewhat biased because I compared it to her previous novel, The Dry. This is of course beautifully written and the description of the landscape is outstanding. Yet, for me the story felt somewhat flat. I would still recommend it, it’s a well written, well narrated book.
