Reviews

A gripping thriller with a sinister sci-fi edge, exploring family, identity and sacrifice. * The Bookseller *
A definite page turner and I read it almost in one sitting. Be warned this is one of those books that stops time and there is a risk your real life will be put on hold while you follow Teva's story. * The Book Bag *
A gripping thriller with a sinister sci-fi edge. * The Bookseller *
Of all of us, teenagers are surely the most enthralled by ideas of self and self-determination and this creepy, unusual novel will have them glued to the pages. * LoveReading4Kids *
A super-smart, standout read that takes a pinch of sci-fi, a dash of romance and a hefty dose of tension and mixes them up in a contemporary test tube. It grabbed me from the very first page and didn't let go! * Tamsyn Murray, author of My So-Called Afterlife *
