“McMahon’s latest is bar-raising.... A stunning genre blend of thriller and fantasy.” —Booklist ""[McMahon] swoops readers off to a setting straight out of a modern, but much starker, Grimm's fairy tale in this odd story with a touch of the supernatural.... A strange, fanciful tale.... Weirdly entertaining."" —Kirkus Reviews ""Fans of McMahon's eight earlier novels (The Winter People, etc.) will be intrigued by this complex and quirky mystery set in a rundown Vermont mill town.... This is a well-crafted story with plenty of suspense to keep readers engrossed."" —Publishers Weekly
