Trade Review
Eames conveys a strong sense of political turmoil enflamed by sinister witch doctors, brutal guerilla factions and superstitious misogyny…compelling. -- Alfred Hickling * Guardian *
An extraordinarily drawn tale. * Book Trust *
Eames is a lovely writer -- Lesley McDowell * Independent on Sunday *
One of the most beautifully written, sad, magical yet clear-eyed novels I've read by any author for many years * Wales Arts Review *
The book blends folklore and superstition perfectly with accessible language, relatable characters, believable dialogue and a fast-paced, well-structured plot...yet another powerful piece of writing. * For Book's Sake *
