Critics Review
“With remarkable originality, she scores again in a novel that transcends genre and leaves the reader spellbound.”– -Richmond Times-Dispatch
I have been on the Cornelia Read bandwagon since her remarkable debut, but even my already ardent admiration didn’t prepare me for the heights she could achieve as a writer. Valley of Ashes, like all the Madeline Dare books, is smart and surprising, acknowledging the cumulative power of Madeline’s troubled past while daring to suggest an even more challenging future. Riveting and devastating. - Laura Lippman
