A REESE’S BOOK CLUB PICK | A NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

“Broken Country by Clare Leslie Hall is an unforgettable story of love, loss, and the choices that shape our lives…but it’s also a masterfully crafted mystery that will keep you guessing until the very last page. Seriously, that ending?! I did not see it coming.”—Reese Witherspoon

“Stirring and mysterious…fires directly at the human heart and hits the mark.”—Delia Owens, New York Times bestselling author of Where the Crawdads Sing

A love triangle unearths dangerous, deadly secrets from the past in this thrilling tale perfect for fans of The Paper Palace and Where the Crawdads Sing.

“The farmer is dead. He is dead, and all anyone wants to know is who killed him.”

Beth and her gentle, kind husband Frank are happily married, but their relationship relies on the past staying buried. But when Beth’s brother-in-law shoots a dog going after their sheep, Beth doesn’t realize that the gunshot will alter the course of their lives. For the dog belonged to none other than Gabriel Wolfe, the man Beth loved as a teenager—the man who broke her heart years ago. Gabriel has returned to the village with his young son Leo, a boy who reminds Beth very much of her own son, who died in a tragic accident.

As Beth is pulled back into Gabriel’s life, tensions around the village rise and dangerous secrets and jealousies from the past resurface, this time with deadly consequences. Beth is forced to make a choice between the woman she once was, and the woman she has become.

A sweeping love story with the pace and twists of a thriller, Broken Country is a novel of simmering passion, impossible choices, and explosive consequences that toggles between the past and present to explore the far-reaching legacy of first love.

    Das Buch hat mir sehr gefallen, weil man die Gefühle der handelnden Personen gut nachempfinden kann. Der Schluss lässt einen dann auch noch den Atem anhalten.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Powerful, Haunting Story That Stays With You
    Reviewed in the United States on August 6, 2025
    Verified Purchase
    Broken Country is one of those rare novels that grips you from the very first page and refuses to let go. As a Reese’s Book Club pick, I expected it to be compelling—but it far exceeded those expectations. The writing is raw and poetic, and the characters are beautifully layered with depth, emotion, and conflict.

    Set against a backdrop of war, displacement, and identity, the story explores themes of trauma, survival, and what it truly means to find “home.” The protagonist’s journey is heartbreaking and hopeful all at once. The way the author weaves personal loss with cultural resilience is both powerful and deeply human.

    What I loved most is how the novel balances intimate storytelling with broader social and historical context. It’s not just about one person's story—it’s about generations, nations, and the silent wounds people carry. The pacing is steady, the prose is elegant, and the emotional weight is undeniable.

    This is not a light read, but it’s an important one—the kind of book that sparks conversation and leaves a lasting impression. Highly recommend for anyone who appreciates literary fiction with meaning and heart.

    A standout choice for Reese’s Book Club, and a story I won’t soon forget.

    Wow!! This book was hard to fault. I read it in one day. Sometimes pages turners miss parts of the story or details but this was beautifully written and had twists and turns at the end. Heartbreaking story of parenthood and young love in a small town l. Highly recommend.
