Advance Praise

London's The Beat: Arts and Entertainment, September 2010: 'The twists and surprises such as the parish priest beating a witch keep it sizzling through to the end.'

Barnes & Noble: 'A lively circus of a novel, animated by a most intriguing cast of characters. The story is truly bizarre and engaging --- at turns suspenseful, humorous, unsettling, even poignant --- and rips along at a brisk and entertaining pace. It is richly imagined, well-told, and made even more compelling by the element of truth. I loved the mayhem of the trial scene, and thoroughly enjoyed the entire book.' L. Finnegan
