Recenzii

"This novel is a powerful return, after a 10-year gap, for Whitbread-winning Hendry ... With a surprising denouement, this is an intriguing, atmospheric and memorable tale" -- Nicolette Jones Sunday Times "A dark and memorable novel ... This wise and unsettling tale will captivate discerning readers of any age. The book builds to a dark, destructive ending, but what you remember are the memorable, finely drawn and vivid characters - and the fractured time in which they are growing up" Telegraph "This thoughtful, rather lyrical story resonates with topical and timeless references" Independent on Sunday "The pacing is perfect, with highly dramatic moments broken up by some gorgeous prose ... One of the most dramatic and shocking endings I've ever read in a novel ... definitely my favourite read of 2012 so far" Writing From The Tub 20120426 "An intense, eerie tale" -- Fiona Noble The Bookseller 20120427
