Reviews
Hirvonen's strength [is] marrying personal family tragedies with huge global events. It can feel preachy at times, yet this novel is both extremely real and current, cutting to the heart of society like the best noir * Crime Fiction Lover *
its sparseness, simplicity and authentic feel to its characters' struggles make it very, very readable * Reactions To Reading *
