"This book sings a dark, dark song -- it's got a grim rhythm that even rock-and-roll has forgotten. If you're standing at the crossroads and you don't know where to go, take the road that leads you to this book."
– Chuck Wendig, author of The Book of Accidents
"The author's love of music adds another level to this atmospheric supernatural thriller, which should appeal to fans of Goth rock as well as horror aficionados."
– Library Journal
"It's an impressive, crackling, no-holds-barred debut from an author who can actually write about rock music without it devolving into No seriously I'm cool! preening clunkiness."
– Decibel Magazine
"Wynne combines the cinematic imagery of sex, drugs, and rock 'n' roll with a good old-fashioned ghost story."
– Publishers Weekly
"It's not often I find a novel that so engrosses me; it kept me turning pages until well after I should have been asleep. I simply could not put this book down. The fact that this is a debut novel is simply astounding. It is only very rarely that a new author arrives on the scene with such a well written book."
