Reviews

Susan Ballyn in Reviews in Australian Studies was impressed with the steady build-up of tension in the novel: "The story is beautifully written, setting a fast pace of events against the backdrop of long summer days. Honey Brown alerts the senses with descriptions of these long days, dipping gently into the night which gives an increased sense of urgency to the events as they unfold."[1]
