    About this audiobook

    Coming home dredges up deeply buried secrets in The Survivors, a thrilling mystery by New York Times bestselling author Jane Harper

    Kieran Elliott's life changed forever on the day a reckless mistake led to devastating consequences.

    The guilt that still haunts him resurfaces during a visit with his young family to the small coastal community he once called home.

    Kieran's parents are struggling in a town where fortunes are forged by the sea. Between them all is his absent brother, Finn.

    When a body is discovered on the beach, long-held secrets threaten to emerge. A sunken wreck, a missing girl, and questions that have never washed away...

    A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books

    “[Harper is] a master at creating atmospheric settings, and it’s easy to fall under her spell…A layered and nuanced mystery.”—Kirkus

    “As always, Harper skillfully evokes the landscape as she weaves a complicated, elegant web, full of long-buried secrets ready to come to light.”—New York Times Book Review

      Fowling With A Fox Under A Wolf Moon

      Feb 16, 2022

      I hung my chest waders to dry over a roof joist in the shed. They had dangled there, like a headless corpse, for four weeks. The business of hedge laying had got in the way of my wildfowling for far too long. My abstemiousness ended when I accepted a

      The book is incomplete. It’s missing about 9 hours of the audiobook. FIX IT, PRETTY PLEASE!

      A good read. All that you would hope from Jane Harper!
    • 3/5
      Meh. Good enough to hold my attention. Felt repetitive the second half of it.
    • 3/5
      I love Jane Harper's novels, they are always an instant buy/listen for me. This book didn't grab me like the others, I found it very slow and the characters all very unlikeable. What I did love were all the red herrings placed around the book. The book also finishes very suddenly too, which I found very jarring. I really liked the narrator, he did a super job.
    • 1/5
      Probably a good book but Scribd's incompetence prevented me from getting past chapter 22 of 44. Now Scribd claims I finished it and as others have pointed out, only the 1st 10 chapters are available. Don't waste your time investing in an audiobook mystery you cannot finish! BTW I was seriously considering buying a subscription once my Christmas gift was over; now, not so much. It's back to public libraries for me -- free, complete, and with immediate tech support. Or Audible, Scribd's major competitor, which has never left me hanging like this.

      Gripping story, and wonderful narrator...one of my favourites! Love anything by Jane Harper.
    • 3/5
      Could have used an edit. The storyline bogged down in repetitive passages.
    • 4/5
      I hadn't read a Jane Harper book before this one, although I'd been wanting to. So I was happy to have the opportunity to listen to this one, and even more happy that I wasn't disappointed. I love a good story with some mystery and some family drama, and that's what this was. There's an old saying that tell us "You can't go home again". This is what happens when you do. Indeed - people have changed, and things are indeed different and difficult for Kieran when he goes back to the town where he grew up and memories and feelings from the past are dredged up for him and his wife. His relationship with his parents is rocky. His friends seem happy to see him - mostly - but the incident from his past that haunts him haunts them as well and colors their current relationships. And when a body is found on the shore, suspicions and memories from the past just come back stronger.
      Excellent on audio, I thoroughly enjoyed the narration by Stephen Shanahan and the story.
      Thanks to Netgalley and Macmillan Audio for providing a copy for an unbiased review.
