Media Reviews
A gripping, well-told story of faith and truth. * Khaled Hosseini, bestselling author of The Kite Runner *
Gripping debut * Elle *
This is a stunning debut... Viscerally scary, gripping and written in beautiful, sparse prose, it's a seriously good read * Sainsbury's magazine *
Mailman generates a real sense of dread for Gude's fate . . . One of Mailman's ancestors was accused of witchcraft in 1600s New England, which adds piquancy to the plot . . . Mailman creditably forces the pace, giving the snouty friar pride of place in an unusual denouement. * Financial Times *
Not for the faint-hearted, Mailman ratchets up the tension and the images of torture as Gude fights to escape an horrendous fate. Gripping. * Marie Claire *
This terrifying, gripping novel shows how desperation spawns wickedness. * The Times *
A centuries-old tale with modern resonance * Guardian *
Beautifully executed * Historical Novels Review *
