<p><b>''Marvellous.''</b><i> Daily Mail</i><br><b>''A stunning achievement.'' </b><i>Sunday Times, BOOK OF THE MONTH</i><br><b>''A gripping novel with a difference.''</b> <i>Psychologies</i><br><b>''Immersive and immensely powerful.''</b> <i>Guardian</i><br><b>''A haunting read but a quite brilliant one.'' </b><i>Independent i</i><br><b>''Intense, brutal and glittering, a call to listen to the voices of the ignored.'</b> <i>Observer</i><br><br><b>The dancer. The mother. The cop. The artist. The wife.</b><br><br>These women live by countless unspoken rules. How to dress; who to trust; which streets are safe and which are not. The rules grow out of a kaleidoscope of fear, anguish, power, loss and hope. Maybe it is only these rules which keep them alive.<br><br>When their neighbourhood is rocked by two murders, the careful existence these women have built for themselves begins to crumble...<br><br><b>'Pochoda turns grief, suffering and loss into art, crafting a literary thriller that is no less compelling for its deep emotional resonance.' <i>Vogue</i></b><br><br><b>What readers are saying:</b><br>''Gritty and addicting.''<br><br>''The kind of storytelling you hope to find in your movie theaters one day.''<br><br>''Pochoda weaves a mystery that not only had me turning the page, but dwelling on lines of prose.''<br><br>''This book was far from what I was expecting it to be . . . I couldn''t tear myself away.''<br><br>''I devoured it in one sitting . . . I LOVED IT.''<br><br>''This is one of those books that tears into you and doesn't let you go - even after you read the last page.''</p>
