Praise for this book
"Writing a really good ghost story is a lot harder than it looks. But Garfinkle pulls it off with elan and produces a wonderful story about lives unlived, for one reason or another, shifting perspectives, what (if anything) we owe our dead, and how we reflect each other, hold each other back, and provide the take-off for others' sprints into maturity. There's also some tasty detail about the lives of working actors on a soap-opera gravy train, that as a film and theater enthusiast, I found delightful." - Suzy McKee Charnas
"All of us have questions and regrets about things we've done, but Jo Bergman is literally haunted by her past. This remarkable novel kept me on tenterhooks as I watched Jo seesaw among the different lives she would have experienced had she made different decisions. Gwynne Garfinkle has nailed both the fraught nature of the 1960s and early '70s and the difficult path of a woman struggling to be her whole self despite the ghosts of her past and the challenges of her present." - Nancy Jane Moore
