Sheena Kamal writes with urgency and authority. I read this book in huge gulps, and in Nora Watts, Kamal has created a fresh and compelling heroine that readers will love. Outstanding * ROD REYNOLDS *
Intricately plotted. A tense, taut thriller with a flawed, compelling heroine. I want to read more about Nora Watts * ANDREA CARTER *
Sheena Kamal's writing is as fearless as her protagonist, Nora Watts. It has a dynamite premise that reminded me of Michael Connelly's Blood Work, in which the hero is asked to solve the murder of the woman whose heart ended up in his chest. Kamal has an equally devious starting point . . . Kamal uses the conventions of the crime novel to cast a critical eye on Vancouver's societal dysfunction, racism and poverty * LINWOOD BARCLAY on Eyes Like Mine *
Private investigator Nora Watts is troubled to say the least. In Kamal's first novel, Eyes Like Mine, Nora searched for the missing daughter she had to give up for adoption when she was herself a teenager whereas here she attempts to uncover the secrets of her dead father's past. The search takes Nora from Vancouver to Detroit and via some very dark places along the way - but Nora's bone-dry, understated wit and casual fearlessness carry her, and us, through the novel with an irresistible momentum. Highly recommended * W. C. RYAN *
