Review Quotes:
"[A]n intimate post-apocalyptic mystery . . . a deft portrait of a society departed so completely from the complexities of the now-destroyed civilization . . . that survivors don't even understand what it is they've lost . . . [A] well-crafted and heartfelt effort." - Kirkus Reviews
"Amazing and compelling, Vaughn brings her deft characterization and humanity to bear on a post-apocalyptic world that is all too real." - Tobias S. Buckell, bestselling author of Arctic Rising
