Rezensionen / Stimmen
"Atmospheric and otherworldly; evokes a sense of mystery and unease and will leave readers wanting more."-? Kirkus, STARRED review
"But the power of the surface horror story - as effective as it is - is something of a mask; there is a deeper story here, a story of grief and loss, which bubbles under the surface (the subtle clues are easy to miss on the first reading) before coming to a full boil in the book's final pages." -? Quill & Quire, STARRED review
