An extraordinary bookThe author takes familiar psychological thriller tropes and throws them up in the air to produce something truly original . . . The flawless storytelling is shared by Jane and Dr Byrd, and produces a narrative that successfully operates on several levels - simultaneously asking questions about the nature of being alive while still being a good old-fashioned page-turner. * Daily Mail *
Both moving and unexpected . . . An unusual, involving read. Jane's case is strange indeed; more than that, it lingers in the mind. * Guardian *
A mesmerizing tale about the mysteries of the brain, the limits of rationality and the magic of love. * People Magazine *
A novel that begins quietly becomes an exhilarating and riveting must-read and then read-again. * Kirkus starred review *
Mesmerising. * My Weekly *
