The way the narrative keeps you guessing about who’s reliable is really compelling. I wonder what inspired the focus on these themes in a small-town setting.

The suspense built up early on, but the middle chapters felt a bit slower. Was that intentional to deepen character development or to build tension?

The setting adds such a unique flavor to the story. I’m curious whether the author drew from real Australian communities or crafted an entirely fictional place.
