Recenzii
Almost unbearably exciting - you'll gulp it down in a single sitting
You will be gripped
Ingenious. . . An unflinching examination of the will to survive . . . Vividly exciting, beautifully paced and surprisingly funny; in Grace, Rogan has found a voice that is both fresh and mysterious
Rogan's rip-roaring tale is a chilling reminder of the cost of survival
A magnificently layered book . . . As compelling as it is profound
