Review: Treasure & Dirt (Ivan Lucic & Nell Buchanan, #1)
Gaby Meares
I listened to the audiobook version of this novel. It’s certainly atmospheric, set in the harsh landscape of Australian opal mining country. The men are harsh, the weather is harsh - it’s a pretty brutal place to be. I don’t think I’m in the right mindset at the moment to be submerged in all this…harshness!
The characters are well drawn, but I found the plot a bit confusing. This could be that I was listening to the story, rather than reading it, so I got a bit lost in the complicated double-crossing that occurs.
This was an enjoyable enough book to listen to, but not a favourite for me.
