About this audiobook

From New Zealand author Donna Malane, My Brother’s Keeper is a dark and twisting mystery that leaves no stone—or page—unturned.

Diane Rowe is a missing persons expert. Ex-con Karen needs Diane’s help to track down her fourteen-year-old daughter, Sunny, whom she’s lost contact with while she’s been in prison.

To Diane, this appears at first glance to be a simple case of a mother wanting to reunite with a beloved daughter. Tracking the girl down is easy. However, convincing her to meet her mother is no easy task. And at the back of Diane’s mind is a nagging thought—that guilt and innocence aren’t straightforward and nothing is quite what it seems. Does Karen really want to fix the wrongs of the past or is there something darker at play here that will take all of Diane’s skills to uncover?

    My Brother's Keeper is a readable but not compelling book. Diane Rowe, a private detective was contacted by an ex-convict, Karen, to locate her 14 year old daughter, Sunny, to make sure she is OK. Having served seven years in prison for murdering her young son, Falcon (she plunged a car into a river with Falcon inside it...Sunny was rescued), she is out and wants to insure that Sunny is safe. Karen got Diane's name from her ex-cellmate, Vex, who is serving time for murdering Diane's younger sister. (It gets a tad complicated.)Diane quickly finds Sunny, who wants to see her mother, but before that can take place, Karen is found dead. I don't think that's giving too much away. Diane now needs to solve the murder.Diane does a lot of flying between Auckland and Wellington. She does a lot of driving. She doesn't, however, do a lot of sleuthing.It's not a cozy mystery and it's not a police or detective procedural. It got good reviews somewhere and that's why I read it. But it is merely OK.
