Recenzii

"The style is as spare as the Nevada landscape, whose desert and mountains are nicely described. For readers who revel in noir mystery (and can match Jack's patience in ferreting out facts), Schopen's latest will satisfy." —Publishers Weekly
 

“This is a brave and unusual book, more textured than most mysteries, more concerned with visions and myths than straightforward seek-and-solve.” —Booklist
