"A touching tale...a love letter to a rural world." -- Entertainment Weekly
"Utterly captivating...what the novel offers above all is bone-deep emotional truth...Baldacci triumphs with his best novel yet." -- Publishers Weekly
This is a wonderfully written book my wife and I thoroughly enjoyed. Our usual reading is espionage, cop books or courtroom novels but this book really captivated us. *****!
