Reviews
"A refreshingly different kind of thriller. The story is riveting, the plot artful, with constant twists and surprises and a serious underlying theme. I devoured the book in two evenings, but the characters are still with me..." -Maja Lunde, internationally bestselling author of The History of Bees
