RaveBooklist\"French delivers a spellbinding stand-alone novel carefully crafted in her unique, darkly elegant prose style ... Issues of identity permeate the narrative. Toby’s previous forays using fake social-media accounts become an issue for the police. Welcome comic relief comes via Hugo’s genealogy investigation service, now in high gear because of Americans confounded by their Irish DNA test results. Toby finds himself wondering how much he had ever really known about his family, now so disconcerted that their misery is \'like some rampaging animal,\' and the reader gets pulled into the vortex right along with them.\
