Aiken handles intricate entanglements with skill, juggling flashbacks like oranges without ever dropping one
This enthralling book is much more than a thriller . . . Joan Aiken has built up a novel both witty and moving around the complex relationships of an extraordinary family that are both indelible and disquieting. Compulsively readable

Bella and Bo, evil twins, create untold damage with their moral rampages; on the side of the angels are Bella’s husband Thomas and son Gabriel. As a study of good routing evil it makes satisfactory reading for a stormy night
In what many will feel is her most innovative novel, this well-known author features intricate relationships and a gripping plot. The narrative is utterly absorbing as it bares secrets the characters try to keep hidden even from themselves
