Name a more iconic duo than Australian movie dramas and a liberal dose of flashbacks

just read: The Dry by Jane Harper
Suspenseful and gripping - I sped through this book. One of the highlights was definitely the setting in the remote Australian bush. Having lived in the wheatbelt of Australia, I definitely recognised these people and this oppressive feeling which lingers over the towns and its residents. There is two mysteries in this novel, one from the present and one from the past and I felt the author did a great job weaving the various storylines and timelines together.
However, the final third of this book fell flat for me. First, I thought it began to drag around the 50-75% mark. I also did not like the way in which the author chose to end this. Without giving too much away - my preference in mysteries is always that the clues given come together in a surprising and interesting way, not that a third unforeseen option comes to light to solve the mystery.
That said, this was an entertaining novel and I would consider picking up the sequels.

A small town hides big secrets in this atmospheric, page-turning debut mystery by award-winning author Jane Harper.
In the grip of the worst drought in a century, the farming community of Kiewarra is facing life and death choices daily when three members of a local family are found brutally slain.
Federal Police investigator Aaron Falk reluctantly returns to his hometown for the funeral of his childhood friend, loath to face the townsfolk who turned their backs on him twenty years earlier.
But as questions mount, Falk is forced to probe deeper into the deaths of the Hadler family. Because Falk and Luke Hadler shared a secret. A secret Falk thought was long buried. A secret Luke's death now threatens
