Industry Reviews
"The element of magic--demonstrated and explained, but never quite explained away--gives the narrative extraordinary resonance and identifies it not just as a grifter's tool but as a human need. Echoes of every fabulist you've ever read, from Scheherezade to Robertson Davies, with storylines swagged, knotted and resolved with relish and finesse. One of those novels which make a genre look like a too-tight fit. There is real talent here and it's bursting out all over."
Literary Review - Philip Oakes (04/19/1997)
"The voice of the storyteller grows more intimate, more mesmerizing, once the narrative begins to explore the shadowy secrets in the victim's past. But it is Kay's extraordinary vision that arrests us; with the starkness of a reverse negative, it shows us light and dark, truth and deception, reality and illusion, even good and evil, in ways we never imagined."
New York Times Book Review - Marilyn Stasio (07/13/1997)
"...Hunt's first novel is a glamorously seedy as a pristine print of a vintage film noir."
Kirkus Reviews (04/01/1997)
