    1. As far as I know, there is no novel published or to be soon rereleased titled The Cure by Jane Harper. The latest release will be Last One Out, published early 2026.

  2. Absolutely love reading Jane Harper books. I have read them all. With the exception of exiles. I will be looking forward to reading that one on holidays.
