'...a chilling study of mothers, daughters, love, and murder....Lucid, tight, and compelling.' (Kirkus Reviews on Every Secret Thing)
"Laura Lippman can speak in any voice....This may be the best book I've read all year."
"This is a standout. And the story of children in jeopardy and innocence lost is sadly all too timely."
