Industry Reviews
"In this follow-up to her acclaimed CROW LAKE, [Mary] Lawson again explores the moral quandaries of life in the Canadian North....It's a world of pristine landscapes and brutal winters, where beauty and harshness are inextricably intertwined."
(09/18/2006)
"Bleak as this novel is, it is never forced or sentimental, or humorless. [Mary] Lawson's narrative is compelling, but her tender evocation of place and character is what lingers in the mind."
