Jane Harper | Michaela Kalowski 

Jane Harper has been hailed “the queen of outback noir” (The Sunday Times) for a string of crime novels that have sold more than three million copies in 40 territories worldwide. Her latest book, Exiles, brings back federal policeman Aaron Falk, who was first introduced in The Dry. He investigates the disappearance of a woman from a country wine festival whose infant daughter is found unharmed in her pram. See Jane in conversation with Michaela Kalowski about the thrilling and likely final instalment of the much-loved Falk series.
