Praise for Michael Hiebert's Dream with Little Angels Hiebert's first novel courts comparison to the classic To Kill a Mockingbird, but the book manages to soar as a moving achievement in its own right. In Hiebert's hands, psychological insight and restrained lyricism combine to create a coming-of-age tale as devastating as it is indelible. -- Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) This book captured me from page one. It's honest, it's raw and it's one of the best books I've read in a long, long while. --Lisa Jackson There's something mesmerizing about Hiebert's storytelling voice. -- The New York Times Book Review Readers who enjoy literary fiction depicting small-town life in the tradition of Harper Lee's To Kill a Mockingbird may want to try Hiebert's debut. -- Library Journal And praise for Close to the Broken Hearted A very good, sometimes emotional, mystery that will stay with you long after it's over. -- Suspense Magazine Hiebert does a masterful job of building suspense. -- Publishers Weekly
