Editorial Reviews

Dallas Morning News
The story's power comes from its daring and imaginative scope, its sense of humanity and human connectedness across . . . the 'small' events of life and the larger events which come to be called history.
Los Angeles Times
A book that provokes thought and is most entertaining to read.
More Reviews (2) Fewer Reviews
New York Times Book Review
Particularly successful in building suspense . . . sensitive and ambitious.
Washington Post
Joanne Leedom-Ackerman knows suspense like Hitchcock . . . But what distinguishes the novel is its characters . . . [They] give this fine novel its power.
