Sanctuary

If you’ve never read a book by Garry Disher before, this standalone novel is an excellent place to start. If you are already a Disher fan, you will know to expect a rollercoaster of a read, full of disturbing crimes and unscrupulous crooks. Except Grace, of course, she’s the kind of criminal you’ll find yourself barracking for in the end, hoping she finds her place of refuge, safe from persecution, and prosecution.

Readings

Disher cleverly weaves tension throughout the story and builds suspense…Readers who enjoy Hayley Scrivenor, Shelley Burr and Jane Harper should enjoy the thrilling Sanctuary.
