Recensioner i media

'Hooked me from page one. This twisty, smart thriller is brimming with complex characters, a page-turning plot and big questions of science, nature, marriage and murder. Matthew Sullivan expertly blends fact, fable and the evocative setting of Soap Lake in rural Washington state to create a spellbinding novel—I adored it.' Tara Conklin, New York Times bestselling author of The Last Romantics
