The Unbelieved
by
Absolutely gripping, I could not put this book down once I started!
The story is based in the small coastal town of Deception Bay and the main character, police officer Antigone Pollard, has returned to the town where she spent time as a child to try to get her life back on track after a relationship breakdown & a hard case that didn’t end well. The themes of the book are so timely & thought provoking - gender based violence & a flawed justice system which can often result in more damage to victims - and they are written about so intelligently in this book which interweaves facts into the fictional storyline.
The cast of characters are really engaging especially Waffles the German Shepard and some bring a lightness to what could have the potential to be a really heavy read given the subject matter.
I absolutely loved this book - by far my favourite book of 2022 to date!
Thank you so much to Better Reading & Allen & Unwin for the preview copy for honest review.
