Loved the plot, the twists, the elegant prose. Some really powerful and vivid text made me feel as if I was in the story. Amazon Reviewer. I love the economy of language, the effectiveness of every word, the relentless undeterable force that drives home every observation. But most of all I love the exquisite detail, the seemingly innocuous description of everyday items, places and people in Argentina, that embroiders a deep richness to this story. Amazon Reviewer A well written story that slowly grips you and doesn't let go. Amazon Reviewer
