An extraordinarily drawn tale.
Book Trust
Atmospheric...Eames is a writer who injects even the grimmest if scenarios with an overarching tenderness
Independent
Combining folklore with politics and plenty of heartwrenching moments, Eames offers beautiful and sympathetic descriptions of the world she creates without losing sight of the tragedies in her character's lives
Daniel Falconer, Big Issue in the North
Eames conveys a strong sense of political turmoil enflamed by sinister witch doctors, brutal guerilla factions and superstitious misogyny…compelling.
Alfred Hickling, Guardian
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.
