The Lost Man by Jane Harper Review

The Lost Man written by Jane Harper which was published in February 5, 2019. You can read this before The Lost Man PDF EPUB full Download at the bottom. Having just read “Voss” by Patrick White, the classic epic novel about a doomed 19th century trek into the Australian outback, I was curious to read a contemporary tale in the same setting. Jane Harper’s “The Lost Man” draws a forbidding picture of this vast landscape where hardy cattle ranchers live three hours away from their nearest neighbors, raising feral livestock in biblical conditions that veer between drought and flood. Close Interdependence is critical to survival, enforced by strict code of activity beyond the fenced homestead. In the case of the Bright family of ranchers, that bond has become frayed to the breaking point. The body of a brother/son is found near the legendary, isolated grave of a stockman who strayed too far from human shelter. How did it end up there? This is a crime novel without a crime other than the sort found in Greek tragedy. Harper sucks the reader in with laconic behavioral detail and well-paced revelations of past violations. For the most part, her writing is unobtrusively effective, though I occasionally found myself wishing she would widen her focus beyond the dogged, emotionally battered eldest brother, Nathan, a protagonist who insistently tugs at your sympathy. If the resolution isn’t altogether surprising or convincing, I was still left amazed by the human capacity to endure not just the worst that Mother Nature can deliver, but that of human nature, as well.

Brief Summary of the Book

Well, so Cam could fix it, Nathan thought. Bub would mostly have been there to pass the spanner. And for safety in numbers. Lehmann’s Hill was on the western edge of the property, a four-hour drive from home. If the repeater mast was out in that area, so was long-range radio contact. ‘What went wrong?’ Nathan said. Bub was staring at the tarp. ‘I got there late. We were supposed to meet at around one but I got stuck on the way. Didn’t get to Lehmann’s until a couple of hours later.’ Nathan waited. ‘Cam wasn’t there,’ Bub went on. ‘Wondered if he’d been and gone but the mast was still out so I thought probably not.
Tried the radio but he never came into range. So I waited a bit, then headed towards the track. Thinking I’d run into him.’
