Critics Review
A brilliant novel… Flawlessly authentic, beautifully captured
A brilliant novel… Flawlessly authentic, beautifully captured * Observer *
Haunting and earthy, a deeply felt tale of love and loss… Tom Spanbauer’s wild west is the hurly burly of the mind. He takes us into territories where few of us would ever dare to go * Publishers Weekly *
