'She's a shining presence in the world of literature, here in Australia and right across the globe...Her voice is always recognisable, invigorating, familiar to us and greatly loved.' -- Helen Garner 'Irresistible...generous, warm and fearless.' -- Kerryn Goldsworthy 'Her [Koval] accessibly written forays into the science of DNA and familial lineages, and what makes us who we are, is beautifully intertwined with her meditations on identity and belonging...Readers too will be deeply shocked by the atrocities outlined in Bloodhound. Such shock, however, is an important reminder that history should never be forgotten, and that books like Bloodhound should continue being written for generations to come.' * Books & Publishing * 'Koval's painstaking collection of evidence and tracing of clues is as compelling as fiction.' * Australian * 'Written in the same jaunty, crisp but personal voice that made [Koval] so beloved as a broadcaster.' * Booktopia Buzz * 'Koval has penned a moving story of her quest for identity amid family secrets.' * Australian Jewish News * 'Koval follows a fascinating scent. She makes us complicit in her pursuit of the past, as she tries to answer what am I? ...This is a story which will resonate.' * Southland Times * 'The result is an extraordinary book. The mix of detective work with the personal, family story makes for a unique memoir-a unique kind of memoir: a memoir that reads like a detective novel. I can think of nothing like it.' * Salon II * 'I was hooked on Ramona Koval's quest to determine her paternal origins in Bloodhound. Here the patient scientist, the dutiful daughter and the nosy journalist morph into a generous memoirist.' * Clare Wright, Age/Sydney Morning Herald, Best Books of 2015 * 'Bloodhound is a manhunt of a very different kind...A revealing and remarkably candid journey.' * Shane Maloney, Age/Sydney Morning Herald, Best Books of 2015 *
