Lian Tanner has three standalone novels that can be read in any order. Rats! appeared first in 2004, followed by a long gap before Ella and the Ocean (2019) and A Clue for Clara (2020) arrived in back-to-back years.
Each book is a self-contained story with no shared characters or plot threads connecting them. The fifteen-year stretch between the first and second titles shows these are independent works rather than a linked sequence. Readers can pick up whichever title interests them most without worrying about order.
