HE DISAPPEARED FOR 15 YEARS...SHE HAS 12 HOURS TO FIND OUT WHY.

After a puzzling death in the wild bushlands of Australia, detective Dana Russo has just hours to interrogate the prime suspect - a silent, inscrutable man found at the scene of the crime, who disappeared without trace 15 years earlier.

But where has he been? Why won't he talk? And exactly how dangerous is he? Without conclusive evidence to prove his guilt, Dana faces a desperate race against time to persuade him to speak. But as each interview spirals with fevered intensity, Dana must reckon with her own traumatic past to reveal the shocking truth . . .

Compulsive, atmospheric and stunningly accomplished, HERMIT introduces a thrilling new voice in Australian crime fiction, perfect for fans of Jane Harper and Chris Hammer.

A waste of time.

I generally don’t do anything but the stars, but for anyone reading this, it is the worst review I have EVER given a book. It is WAY to long. One character’s narration is SO bad. The whole story covers 12 hrs. You wait and wait for something that is the true crux of the narrative and the book just stops. So what did happen 20 yrs later? You will never know. I have listened to the equivalent of 2 yrs of non stop audio. I am an English major. I have the credentials to write this review.
