“A kick.”
New York Times

Delightful…Plenty of heart and humor.”

“This book is simultaneously a love story, a whodunnit and a family saga. It is poignant, involving, moving and engrossing—and, not least, highly enjoyable from beginning to end.”
Metapsychology

“A funny, touching novel. Larson has given her [protagonist ] an audacious and memorable voice.”
Boston Globe

“Profane, harrowing, comical.”
AARP Magazine

“Impressively rich, darkly plotted, and seriously frightening.”
