The Seduction of Sunni Sinclair demonstrates a great knowledge/understanding of the setting and situations of this 1954 based tale, but I found myself having to pause on several occasions to figure out whose voice/story was being related at the time, which is unusual, but I can't quite pinpoint why, so I just think that if, like me, you don't have a preference for reading format, I would have got more enjoyment from the story by reading rather than listening,

The Seduction of Sunni Sinclair by Noel Mealey is a fantastic novel and set in Australia in 1954, in a rural mining town, it could not be further from the usual settings I read about but I was absolutely invested. Reading the book was fantastic and the audiobook read by Fiona Press is brilliant!

Historically arm candy as an escort, Sunni Sinclair is out for sweet retribution as she decides to embark on a heist of her own. A razor sharp intellect and strength of character, balking against social norms, this is a heroine who you will love (and at times be frustrated by) as she turns gender roles on their heads and flips the script on the male-dominated criminal underworld

Mealey is a blinding author, there is so much in this book to follow, to guess about, to reflect on and ultimately enjoy. The pace is perfect, the charaters are relatable as much as they are disliked and the plotline is inspired. A great read
