‘In a change of direction for an author better knows for family dramas, Marti Leimbach strikes out for the battlefields of Vietnam... (She) does an impressive job of evoking the frenetic chaos of Saigon and the claustrophobia and suffocating humidity of the dense jungle, while her story has a vivid immediacy as it flashes back wards and forwards in a deliberately disorienting fashion. The result is intense and gripping.’ Daily Mail
