Recensione

“A deeply involving novel...Bowen has supplied such a convincing array of details about [Joanne Kilbourn’s] family, friends and the landscape they inhabit that we slip into her life as easily as knocking on a neighbor’s door.”
–Publishers Weekly

“Bless Gail Bowen, she does it all: genuine human characters, terrific plots with coherent resolutions, and good, sturdy writing.”
–Joan Barfoot in the London Free Press

“An author in full command of her metier. Like a master chef, Gail Bowen has taken disparate elements...and combined them seamlessly.”
–Calgary Herald
