I've just read a wonderful mystery by author Carmel Reilly, "Life Before". I highly recommend it as an unputdownable read that keeps you guessing, and thinking for a long time after about its haunting themes. The story and characters wound ever-more-tightly around me until I could barely breathe with anticipation. I will be officially launching the novel next Thursday 9th May at 6.30pm at Readings Hawthorn, 701 Glenferrie Road Hawthorn. I can't wait to see this book out in the world and for others to read it and enjoy it as much as I did.
