Industry Reviews
"[A] promising debut....As style, her prose is often beautiful and full of grace, but as communication it can be confusing....What lingers are moments, sayings, and the marvelous descriptions of sights and sounds..."

A very interesting plot. Ms. Haynes imagination in naming her characters is superb. She is an author on her way up. This book has a little bit too much setting description, but overall it is interesting enough and fun too read.
