Recenzii
"A
Piranesi
prison
of
a
story....a
workably
nightmarish
premise,
which
Hermanson
exploits
cleverly,
doling
out
the
odd
glimmer
of
hope
only
to
enmesh
her
hero,
and
the
reader,
more
deeply
in
the
no-exit
web
she's
spinning."—New

"The claustrophobic atmosphere is perfect...I wish there was a way to stay in the suspenseful state. It's simply exquisite."—Tidningen Vi
"She knows better than most how to combine the thought-provoking with the suspenseful...THE DEVIL'S SANCTUARYis both important and entertaining."—Gefle Dagblad
