Rae Cairns is a Sydney-based author who shot to notoriety when her debut, self-published novel, ‘The Good Mother’ was shortlisted in 2021 for the Ned Kelly Award in the Best Debut Crime Fiction category.
Following this auspicious event, Rae was offered a two-book deal with HarperCollins publishers and 'The Good Mother' was revised and reissued allowing even more readers to discover Rae’s storytelling prowess with this gripping thriller.
This month, Rae is celebrating the release of her second novel ‘Dying to Know’. And I have to say, listeners, much like ‘The Good Mother’, this book was thrilling and heart-stopping in equal measures. From it’s opening pages, Rae sinks her storytelling hooks into us and doesn’t ease up until the very end.
With its intriguing premise, expertly researched details and propulsive action - I picked this book up on a Sunday afternoon and simply couldn’t put it down again until I was done.
For several hours everything took a backseat to this incredible story of love, loyalty corruption, betrayal and a sister’s search for the truth.
I absolutely loved this book and couldn’t wait to chat with Rae on the podcast again.
