compelling setup and stunning conclusion...The depth of the characters,
the questions they ask and the challenge they confront stay with the
reader long after the conclusion." Kirkus Reviews, Starred Review
"A
smart, haunting thriller with bass reverb and a pounding
heart....Spencer transforms an eight thousand dollar gambling debt and a
dog with two names into an enthralling literary ride....Spencer is an
American master." Jayne Anne Phillips, author of Lark and Termite
