Like all Rowan's novels, it's life-affirming and shows the best of what humans can be; I felt that the world was a better place when I put it down. As a novel about impossible things, it made me think that anything was possible. -- Julie Cohen * bestselling author of Together * The Time Traveler's Wife meets Sophie's Choice... wonderfully atmospheric...
