THE NANCYS – Landfall Review Online -book review by Vanda Symon
“Rob McDonald has expertly negotiated the balance of light and dark. He has taken what could easily have been a clichéd parody and instead created an entertaining and satisfying crime novel with a cast of characters I loved and genuinely cared about. The Nancys was an unsettling, captivating, uplifting and thought-provoking read.”
Love this Instagram Post Review from @waywardfancy
@waywardfancy Best read of the month! The Nancys by @rwrmcdonald is delicious! It deftly combines dark humour with warmth creating a compelling mystery, memorable characters and wonderful setting. When is the Jane Campion TV series being made????
