What other Folks Have to Say
“Panowich pulls off [a] daunting undertaking with astounding success...The storytelling is mesmerizing, with virtually every chapter set in a different timeline and focused on a single character, but the sense of immediacy carries over into each era. And while the violence is shocking in its coldhearted brutality, it’s as aesthetically choreographed as any ballet.”
Marilyn Stasio,
The New York Times Book Review
