An intimate and stunning portrait of small town life in contemporary Ireland is painted from 21 perspectives. Each narrator is connected to the others, yet each has their own filters and flaws. What is real is not necessarily what is true: we see others very differently than they perceive themselves. It is those gaps that complicate the lives of everyone, the good and compassionate, as well as the injured and angry. The influences of cultural, political, and economic history on the individual and the community are deftly woven into these rich personal tapestries.
— From Clone of Liza's PicksSchool Library Journal, October 2013:
"Where the story really shines is in the fully developed characters... [an] action-packed and thoughtful adventure story."
Booklist, October 15, 2013:
"Cody offers a rewarding historical novel with the appealing possibility of more to come featuring Will and his companions."
Starred Review, The Bulletin, November 2013:
"Rich characterization..."
The Horn Book, January/February 2014:
"Fans of John Flanagan’s Ranger’s Apprentice series will find plenty to like here: lots of action, witty repartee, and an immediate style that will draw readers into the story."
