"Enthralling . . . a story so packed with thrills, comedy, drama and a bit of red herring that the result is apt to satisfy the most discriminating, and hungry, reader."--"The Denver Post""[Connie] Willis can tell a story like no other. . . . One of her specialties is sparkling, rapid-fire dialogue; another, suspenseful plotting; and yet another, dramatic scenes so fierce that they burn like after-images in the reader's memory."--"The Village Voice""Ambitious, and moving . . . with a lovely twist at the end."--"The San Diego Union-Tribune" "[Willis's] re-creation of wartime England is meticulous, energetic and exhaustive."--"The Wall Street Journal" "[A] tour de force."--"The Charlotte Observer"
