'Immersive and thoroughly satisfying.' * Trouw * 'A father on the edge...Flashes of Breaking Bad.' * Het Parool * 'A page turner...certainly got me questioning who to trust.' * RNZ Nine to Noon * 'A taut, psychologically lush, and utterly fulfilling novel, with narrative echoes of an old Icelandic saga...This is that rare beast: a work of literary fiction that will also satisfy the lovers of thrillers and crime fiction.' * GLAM Adelaide *
