Dymocks staff have recommended three new releases. Deep Water is a young adult thriller with a brilliantly woven puzzle to really grasp the attention of the reader. The Dickens Boy is a historical fiction from the master that is Tom Keneally, taking the historical figure of Charles Dickens and reimagining a wonderful tale full of "verve, compassion and humour". The Dictionary of Lost Words is a beautiful and thought-provoking celebration of words set when the women's suffrage movement was at its height.
