It's been a while since I've read a book set in Australia. Sadly, there isn't a lot of discussion about the countryside in this one because much of Dark Heart is set in a hospital. That being said, this was a roller-coaster ride! Once again, I resorted to nail-biting to offset the chilly tension of a plot.

To say this story had the dual responsibility of setting up a series and being a tense thriller, it masterfully succeeded at both. Not an easy task! I can't wait to read more by Catherine Lee.
