Review
"Stellar. . . . One of Bowen's best."
-- Margaret Cannon, in The Globe and Mail
"Surprises, and truths, lie beneath the surface. It is ever thus with Gail Bowen and her heroine, Joanne Kilbourn - making her 12th appearance in print and still smart and sexy."
-- Saskatoon StarPhoenix
"As always, Bowen's fine eye for detail makes for a rich and entertaining read. . . . The Nesting Dolls is a fine book."
-- Winnipeg Free Press
"One of [Bowen's] best . . . The underlying human drama of love and good intentions gone very, very bad make the novel a compelling read."
-- Vancouver Sun
"Enjoyable. . . .[The] realistic depictions of Joanne's extended caring family should please fans."
-- Publishers Weekly
"Definitely one of her best Joanne Kilbourn novels."
-- Margaret Cannon, Globe and Mail "The politics are particularly gripping."
