Adcock (The Barter) creates a startling dystopian world in her leisurely paced second novel that is bound to attract readers of Sarah Hall's Daughters of the North and feminist sf mysteries.
Like Curtis Sittenfeld's Sisterland, Adcock's debut novel weaves the doldrums of early motherhood with the supernatural. However, her plot is unevenly paced and will leave readers wishing this ghost story were more suspenseful. [See Prepub Alert, 3/31/14.]
