Hope you enjoy it Kylie. It's an amazing story that you wouldn't believe it if it was fictional.

Oh my goodness, I hope not!! Surely it would have been mentioned in the blurb Andrea. Does it seem similar?

It sounds like it's about the same character - Joshua Grayling - but the rest sounds different... Perhaps it's a sequel?

It's a sequel Andrea - Eliza Grayling is the daughter of Joshua Grayling who was a MC in Preservation

Ah, I see! I saw another reviewer using the same character names and thought it was the same story. Sequel is fine!

That's odd Marianne - that it's just been added when it's already published.

Kylie H | 1493 comments I just stumbled across The Kingdom by Jo Nesbø The Kingdom by Jo Nesbø that is available for request on NG. It is a new standalone, fingers crossed I can get this one!

Sarah | 1543 comments Thanks for the heads-up, Kylie and Marianne!

Garry Disher's brilliant Peace is also available for request - must be in advance of US release, as it was published in Australia last November.
I'd personally strongly recommend reading Bitter Wash Road first.
