A Common Loss

'A potent story of secrets, love, friendship and the bonds that keep people close ... Brimming with blackmail and deception, Tranter's second novel does not disappoint' Australian Bookseller & Publisher.

'The story, carefully unravelled, is about the aftermath. It's a bit like a Barbara Vine novel, or Donna Tartt's The Secret History. It's compulsive; it sucks you in' Evening Standard.

'A seductive thriller' The Lady.

'Tightens around the reader like a vice ... Makes most other psychological thrillers seem simple-minded' The Australian.

'Tranter knows how to structure a mystery and keep readers turning pages. It is a rare and unbeatable combination' Australian Book Review.
