What They're Saying
Critics Review
Thrillers can so often lean on a fuzzy sense of “insanity” to justify a character’s behaviour, but the handling tends to be superficial; here it proves devastating. This is already one of my favourite books of the year. - Irish Times
Cunningly told … The author’s cunning deployment of information keeps the reader guessing. - Financial TimesAlyssa Sheinmel’s writing is so true, her characters so real, that they live on long after the last page is turned. - New York Times bestselling author Luanne RiceA compelling and beautifully told story - Kathleen Glasgow, New York Times bestselling author of Girl in PiecesA tense and terrific read - Natalie D. Richards, author of One Was Lost and What You HideA great story full of mystery, heartbreak, and hope - Jennifer Shaw Wolf, author of Dead Girls Don’t Lie and Breaking BeautifulIntense, compelling, and wholly original - Kerry Kletter, author of The First Time She DrownedThis compelling character study begins like a thriller-the mystery of what happened to her friend Agnes draws considerable suspense… it becomes a nuanced exploration of mental illness - BooklistAbout The Author
