From its disturbing opening onwards, I couldn’t stop turning the pages ... it works like a time-machine, effortlessly transporting you to a troubled time in U.S. history; with characters that linger in the mind long after you have finished the book. An instant classic, I will be recommending this to everyone I know. Not just a great American crime story; this is a great American novelAlex Michaelides, author of The Fury
