‘Finished Bad Apples by Will Dean and all I can say is…there aren’t words. Talk about DARK.’

‘Swedish reporter Tuva Moodyson, who wears hearing aids, takes to the hills where the isolated and inbred town of Visberg can be found at the end of a long and winding road.’

– Guernsey Press and Star
‘[Tuva] is admirably resilient, full of warmth and humour… Her travails may well give sensitive readers nightmares, but that’s a small price to pay for spending time in her exhilarating company.’
