Summary
A devastating bushfire. Three scorched marriages. An an inflammatory secret that will rock a town.
When a lethal bushfire tore through Myrtle, nestled in Victoria’s breathtaking Otway Ranges, the town’s buildings - and the lives of its residents - were left as smouldering ash. For three women in particular, the fire fractured their lives and their relationships.
Eighteen months later, with the flurry of national attention long past, Myrtle stands restored, shiny and new. But is the outside polish just a veneer?
Community stalwart Julie thinks tourism could bring back some financial stability to their little corner of the world and soon prods Claire, Bec and Sophie into joining her group. But the scar tissue of trauma runs deep, and as each woman exposes her secrets and faces the damage that day wrought, a shocking truth will emerge that will shake the town to its newly rebuilt foundations....
An evocative story of everyday people fighting for themselves, their families and their town.

had me sobbing
I came across this after hearing another of Fiona Lowe's audio books.
I was blown away by her writing in the previous story but this has now become one of my favourites from this sort of genre. It is a heart wrenching story, and had me sobbing multiple times.
would 100% recommend 💜

engrossing
I really enjoyed this book. It dealt with some very thought provoking issues sensitively and well. the story cantered along and I had to keep listening to find out what happened to this lovely( mostly) group of women and men. So nice to read a book set in Australia too.
