"A book of such accelerating tension that the pages seem to turn faster as one moves along." —Chicago Tribune
"As scary and suspenseful as anything in Hitchcock." —The New Yorker
"Extraordinary. . . . Daring. . . . Frightening in its implications." —The New York Times
"Fascinating, suspenseful, and morally provocative. The characterizations are sharply etched and the narrative is compelling."—Chicago Sun-Times

—The Times (UK)
