author:  Ceridwen Dovey 
description: "A precise and terrifying debut novel." <br>-<i>The New York Times Book Review</i><br><br> "Dovey's surgical prose and cool apprehension of the machinations of ambition and lust make her a writer to watch." <br>-<i>O, The Oprah Magazine</i><br><br> "Taut and remarkably self-assured first novel . . . there's a knowing sensuality to the novel's sparsely lyric passages." <br>-<i>Los Angeles Times</i>
