Talking Aussie Books with Sara Foster

Sara Foster is a Perth-based author of six best-selling psychological suspense novels that include ‘You Don’t Know Me’ The Hidden Hours’ and ‘All that is Lost Between Us’, along with the acclaimed dystopian thriller ‘The Hush’.

Two of Sara’s novels have been optioned for TV and ‘You Don’t Know Me’ - a book I have read and absolutely loved - was adapted into a chart-topping drama podcast series by Listnr. 

Sara’s newest novel ‘When She Was Gone’ was released by HarperCollins earlier this month. And listeners, what a nail-biting thriller this one is. 

Taut, pacy and utterly compelling, I ripped through this page-turner at break-neck speed. 

With the mystery behind the sudden disappearance of two small children and their young nanny at the heart of this novel - the story not only pulls at the heartstrings, but shines a spotlight on rich people behaving badly and the tricky interplay between politics, power and justice. 

An astounding read that I cannot recommend highly enough. 

I was thrilled to speak with Sara about this new book on the podcast recently.
