(3.5 stars) slow burning drama set in Melbourne and Sydney, with the NSW Central Coast town of Budgewoi making a welcome cameo! Though well written, I found this dissection of grief harder to digest the more I read, as the over-abundance of day-to-day details slowed the pace to a crawl at times. The scene jumps, that initially lent charm to the story, seemed more abrupt, and confusing, later on.
