"Irreverent, intelligent and smart, Dana Schwartz is one of the brightest of the next generation of young writers." --Neil Gaiman, #1 New York Times bestselling author
"Schwartz's magical novel is at once gripping and tender, and the intricate plot is engrossing as the reader tries to solve the mystery. She doesn't miss a beat in either the characterization or action, scattering clues with a delicate, precise hand. This is, in the end, the story of the anatomy of the human heart." -
Booklist (starred review)

Bulletin for the Center of Children's Books "A fast-paced, utterly engrossing tale of mystery, romance, and cadavers. Dana Schwartz deftly blends the historical with the supernatural, racing from macabre graveyards to Scottish castles with two compelling young heroes I dare you not to root for. I grinned, I gasped, I cried and ended this book breathless and craving more." --Alwyn Hamilton,
New York Times bestselling author of the Rebel of the Sands series
