“Parker takes Southern Gothic cliches and turns them on their heads: a powerfully original work.” (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))

"Interesting characters, tons of plot, and evocative writing . . . this is from Daniel Woodrell territory." (Library Journal)

"An absorbing narrative . . . an introspective work that should awaken readers' imaginations and their awareness of their humanity." (Publishers Weekly (starred review))

"Parker displays the eye for subtle detail and nuance of character that has invited comparisons to Faulkner and Reynolds Price." (Charlotte Observer)
