Dove - Georgia Harper

From the winner of the 2025 Davitt Award for debut crime fiction A provocative question. A community on edge. A murder waiting to happen. 'Gorgeous writing and an unfolding plot rich in both menace and sensuality, Dove shows just how impactful the best psychological thrillers can be.' JACQUELINE BUBLITZ After a violent confrontation with the man next door, Dove paints a daring question on the front wall of her Sunshine Coast hinterland farm- 'What would you do if you had a whole day on earth free of men?' When tourists and local women answer by writing their pent-up frustrations, fears and confessions, it strikes a nerve with the local blokes. With nowhere to hide from exposed secrets and shameful legacies, tensions boil up, just as the town hits the headlines over a missing teen. As media scrutiny grows and Dove faces anonymous threats, she fears her secret romance might harbour its own hidden dangers.
