“A sly and masterly historical novel, written with intelligence and flair.” —The New York Times Book Review
“A wonderfully ingenious novel, compelling, convincing, and exciting.” —John Banville
“Powerful. . . . Superb. . . . [Martin] slips into the nineteenth century with the ease of a time traveler.” —The Boston Globe
“Fact and fiction meld so neatly that it seems as if every character is drawn from real life. . . . The novel—unlike the Mary Celeste—sails home with flying colors.” —The Seattle Times
“A masterpiece of fine detail and intense reimagining. . . . Martin evokes a world suspended between faith and reason, in which ‘the other side’ is quite real—and always beckoning.” —The Guardian (London)
“Based on reality, this artful tale of ghost ships, mystery writers and seances is dripping with atmosphere.” —The Times (London)
“Starkly beautiful. . . . Emotionally rewarding. . . . Circl[es] that idea of a loss that can’t be explained or even understood, a grief that swallows the self as surely as the sea swallows whole ships.” —The A.V. Club
“Brilliantly done—fluently written, vividly imagined, really moving and genuinely, chillingly spooky.” —Daily Mail
“Superb. . . . A tour de force. . . . A beautiful, affecting literary tapestry. . . . An exquisite and intricately layered ghost story.” —Shelf Awareness
“Truly fascinating. . . . The seemingly disparate plotlines are skillfully woven together to create a novel that is well crafted, intriguing, and suspenseful, perhaps as a homage to Sir Conan Doyle himself. Martin’s seafaring story contains history, suspense, and heartbreak in equal measures as it slowly builds to an enigmatic conclusion. Highly recommended for all readers who appreciate quality historical fiction.” —Library Journal (starred)
“Melancholic and moving.” —Publishers Weekly
“A complex, imaginative version of historical fiction. . . . Martin has wound the disparate threads of her novel into a haunting personal drama.” —Kirkus Reviews
“First-rate. . . . Haunting.” —Booklist
