Media Reviews

"Starred Review. McKinty overcomes minor missteps--a key revelation tipped almost from the outset and a less-than-satisfying final scene--with his trademark dark lyricism, one great red herring, and a masterful plot twist that brings Forsythe's character full circle in a lightning flash." - Booklist.

"Starred Review. Devotees of Irish literature will also appreciate the many allusions to Joyce's Ulysses." - PW.
