The Dry by Jane Harper
In a small, drought-stricken Australian town, a federal agent returns to attend the funeral of his childhood friend, who is believed to have committed a horrific murder-suicide. As he reluctantly stays to investigate the circumstances surrounding the deaths, long-buried secrets and tensions within the tight-knit community begin to surface. The agent must confront his own past and the town's dark history, unraveling a web of lies and deceit that threatens to engulf everyone involved.
