Shallow Breath

I read Shallow Breath by Sara Foster which is set mainly on the coast of Western Australia.  The story is told by a different character and time period with each chapter.  The chapter is headed by the character's name but until you start reading you're not sure which time period as it is  not chronological.  They are all important characters so can't really point to a "main" one, though Desi is really at the centre and the other characters have some relationship to her.  There is a mystery about Desi and the reason she has been in prison.  Secrets are gradually uncovered.  Most importantly the story is told against the background of endangered species and their horrific plight.  The author tells about the slaughter of dolphins, sharks, elephants and orangutans, cleverly weaving their story within the story of Desi and her family. 31/2/5
