Critics Review
Sepetys brilliantly blends a staggering amount of research with heart, craft, and insight in a way very few writers can … the novel crackles with energy… The last line will leave readers gasping. Compulsively readable and briliant. * Kirkus, starred review *
A tense, thought-provoking thriller set in a world where no one can be trusted. – Fiona Noble * The Guardian *
