"As Caletti combines literary fiction with suspense, she keeps readers guessing until the last page."Booklist
"This is a lush, suspenseful read set in a sleepy seaside town, with both main characters using the locale (and each other) as a means to escape. Caletti's strengths are all on display: the novel is carefully paced, the prose excellent, and the characters (and their ghosts and demons) are realistic and strikingly drawn. Each person's motivations and reliability as a narrator are weighed and considered over the course of the novel, with expectations upended and reevaluated constantly. The build to the climax is relentless, tense and satisfying."RT Book Reviews
"This is a fast-paced read, with exceptional moments of suspense."The Book Review
