Professional reviews
"“A powerful and absorbing novel that pulls you deep into the troubled war years of its young heroine. Love and loyalty are the book's real themes, and the manipulation of the innocent. Brilliantly done.” ESTHER FREUD “A moving portrait of a girl forced to come of age in a world at war.” SUNDAY TIMES An unforgettable, nightmarish coming-of-age story set in rural Austria towards the end of the Second World War. Rich in folklore and period detail this stunning debut has a unique atmosphere that captivates from the beginning."
