""Hills slowly builds an enthralling portrait of life in a 1950s farming community. A distinctive and welcome addition to the genre."" --Kirkus Reviews ""Hills weaves her tale skillfully with a plot as richly textured as her Midwestern landscape. Her characters—untamed, reticent, lonely and proud—are exquisitely rendered in this postwar morality tale."" --Publisher's Weekly ""Hills uses little-known historical events and facts to give her series pizzazz."" --Library Journal
