Review:
'Intense, powerful and thoroughly unnerving, this strange and seamless mixture of crime and mythology is a haunting exploration of guilt, revenge and the power of love.'--- The Guardian
'An intense contemporary myth that brilliantly evokes the madness of grief.'--- The Irish Times
'I was profoundly affected by the power of Gaude's writing. Mesmerising, cerebral writing that I cannot praise enough. Highly recommended.' --Raven Crime Reads
'A mesmerising, haunting book' --L Express
'A wonderful reminder that life is short and transitory and death lasts for infinity. (...) The read is well worth the effort and highly rewarding.' --Breakaway Reviewers
