"A powerful, intense, incredibly frank and
uncomfortably erotic portrait of a woman striving to find herself, an
intelligent and strong woman who yet has weaknesses that make her vulnerable.
The prose is beautiful even when the subject is dangerous." - Crime Time Radio
"A brave and important book
that reads like an engrossing thriller." -
Grace Nichols, author of
Passport to Here and There"Febrile and frequently disturbing, it had
me gripped right to the end.' - Mick Jackson, author of The Underground Man
"This is such a powerful, resonant work. If
it doesn't reap dozens of literary prizes, then the literary world is as
corrupt and supine as I've always believed it to be." - Morning Star UK
