In this intensely clever, sometimes baffling book, it's never quite clear who is manipulating whom, and which side is up."- The New York Times Book Review "Stunning. . .Readers are irresistibly drawn into Weaver's dogged struggle to unravel a complicated game of cat and mouse."- USA Today "[A] dizzying, dazzling array of hidden agendas and confused allegiances . . .
