Those Girls (Stevens) - Book Reviews

Book Reviews
[A] gripping thriller.... Stevens skillfully builds suspense, but often draws characters with broad strokes, sacrificing depth for pacing, and a few niggling details (such as the timing of Brian’s marriage) remain unexplained. Despite its flaws, this fast-paced nail-biter will keep readers up late—and may evoke a few tears.
Publishers Weekly


(Starred review.) [Three] sisters...anxiously await the return of their abusive and alcoholic father, who has been away for a month working on an oil rig. The homecoming is worse than they anticipated.... [Such ] an engrossing, suspenseful tale that readers will wish they could warn the protagonists of the dangers that lie ahead...nail-biting suspense. —Susan Moritz, Silver Spring, MD
Library Journal


Tense, believable, and action-packed, made more vibrant by Stevens' sense of place.
