Reviews & Press Quotes

Helen Garner

“A tour de force.”

Hilary Mantel

“Hyland aims straight for the truth and heart.”

The Observer

“Patrick, an ordinary, decent young man in a boarding house, does an extraordinary thing he can't explain: he kills another man. Very simply told, his life gets right under your skin, while the clever narration invites sympathy for people you'd probably avoid in the world outside. Compelling.”
