A highly senual, supernatural story of two spirits caught in purgatory. . . . Mesmerizing. --Publishers Weekly

Whitcomb is generous with atmospheric detail . . . and she creatively pulls together a dramatic and compelling plot that cleverly grants rebellious teen romance a timeless grandeur. --The Bulletin Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
