"I haven’t had as
much sheer fun reading a novel in years. Chaon’s characters are always
so beautifully drawn that they hold your attention even when they’re
just sitting and thinking. In this breathtaking book, they do that and a
whole lot more."
Anne Packer, author of The
Dive from Clausen's Pier
"Far more than an
absorbing mystery, in this complex and psychologically astute story Dan
Chaon put on a virtuosic display of his literary talent. It's a
thrilling example of the best of contemporary literary fiction."
