One to watch. --Daily Mail
A novel that pulses with rhythm, texture, language, and a story that keeps you locked to its pages. Brutally honest, expertly woven, and utterly mesmerizing. I loved this book. --Naseem Rakha, author of the international bestseller The Crying Tree
A gut-wrenching and gorgeously lyrical debut... Engrossing and human to the core, Edwards's novel wrings the heart in the most tender of ways. --Publishers Weekly
"With great courage, both physical and political, Anderson reveals in stark detail the absence of genuine contact between the foreign armies and the civilians they claim to be helping... gripping and disturbing." Jonathan Steele, former Chief Foreign Correspondent for the Guardian
