- Jane Harper, Indie Book Awards 2017 Book of the Year, The Dry

I've been overwhelmed by the way independent booksellers have embraced The Dry, hand-sold it

and championed debut Australian fiction. I know it has made a huge difference to the sales and word-of-mouth exposure for the book, because hundreds of readers have told me so, and for

that I am immensely grateful.
