Well-defined characters, including the marvelous Sister Martine,
who runs a sanctuary for women in trouble; slowly building
suspense; and an ending that pulls out all the stops make for a
really good wintry read that's reminiscent of Mary Stewart and
Victoria Holt. Best by firelight.-- "Booklist"
[A] brilliantly conceived and executed gothic thriller...Goodman
provides readers with that delicious frisson that comes from not
knowing what will happen next.-- "Publishers Weekly (starred
review)"
