Recensione:

“Polished, intelligent, and inventive . . . high-grade stuff, laced only with wit, a touch of feminism, and myriad, entertaining ambiguities.”
–Kirkus Reviews

“An intricate psychological chess game . . . Sharp-edged humor, a devious, neo-Gothic plot that twists back on itself, and a lust for revenge impel the novel to its inexorable finale.”
–Publishers Weekly

“Ekes out the tension . . . increasingly thrilling as the pages fly by.”
–The Times (London)
