Trade ReviewA page-turner ... calls to mind Alice Walker's
The Color Purple ... imaginative and absorbing - Irish Independent
impressively ambitious ... an absorbing read throughout, not least because Yvonne Cassidy's evocation of EL's time place and time is so richly detailed and Cassie's flight from reality in search of truth is so hauntingly rendered - Irish Examiner
Praise for Yvonne Cassidy's books: - :
**** - 'a highly compelling tale ... a hugely gripping plot that takes us from 80s Ireland to contemporary London where the story ... reaches a shocking climax. A real page-turner.' - RTE Guide
Intelligent and tautly written - Irish Independent
'... as the tense drama between the brothers is played out, the lines between truth and lies, good and bad, light and dark become increasingly blurred, culminating in a violent and shocking act.
Cassidy does not provide the reader with any easy answers in this sinister story. The truth is to be found somewhere in the cracks and in-between spaces within each brother's narrative. It is ultimately left up to the reader to make sense of this on their own, to construct our own narrative to explain what has gone on. - Irish Independent
'A humdinger of a first novel . . . Cassidy is excellent at the build-up of tension, until the reader can hardly bare to turn the page for fear of what is to come. Rough, raw and telling it like it is . . . ' - The Tablet
