“Touching…One is moved by her ability to suggest the aching emotional chasm of apparently solid middle-aged lives.” —Publishers Weekly
“Atmospheric novellas….full of suspense and surprise. These carefully written little gems showcase Grimes at her best.” —Library Journal
“Each focuses on a single woman living a mundane, well-ordered life until that seeming contentment is derailed by a man with sinister intent. This is Grimes in prim Barbara Pym clothing.”—The Ottawa Citizen
