Review
"IT IS NO small feat to write a story so heavy with foreboding and both deliver on the palpable sense of dread and concoct a hopeful yet realistic ending. Dowd achieves this in her beautifully realized account of one girl's loss of innocence, and her resilient recovery.""--Publishers Weekly, "Starred "Dowd's elegant, unsentimental prose and her instinctive grasp of the struggles of the human heart [lead] toward a hopeful ending. Don't let your kids keep this book to themselves.""--People Magazine ""Told through flowing eloquent prose, with strong Joycean influences, this engrossing and haunting tale will not let the reader go.""--Kirkus Reviews"
