I've always enjoyed Alan Carter's writing and Prize Catch is no exception. Not only are his characters engaging the settings are always evocative and beautifully described.
With Prize Catch Alan Carter has mixed a cleverly crafted plot with superb character development.
Prize Catch is rich in suspense and although I found the beginning slow the pace soon picked up and I became totally immersed in the story.
I liked that it was set during the early days of Covid lockdowns which made an isolated Tasmania the perfect setting for a manhunt.
With dual plot lines of activists against a big salmon farm and war crimes in Afghanistan, I was eager to see how these two vastly different areas would come together.
Prize Catch is a riveting crime novel but I think it was the fabulous characters that really stood out to me.
