NEW YORK TIMES BOOK REVIEW
“The Girls With No Names concludes in crescendo so fever-pitched that the last page seems to come too soon. Nevertheless, Burdick has spun a cautionary tale of struggle and survival, love and family — and above all, the strength of the heart, no matter how broken." CHICAGO TRIBUNE BOOK REVIEW "The first person narratives place us into the minds of each woman, exposing her fears and hopes, and the strength needed to live through another day." PUBLISHERS WEEKLY "Told from the alternating points of view of Effie; her mother, Jeanne; and Mable, the narrative combines lush prose with a quick and riveting plot. Readers will be intensely moved by this historical." KIRKUS REVIEW "A spellbinding thriller for fans of Gilded Age fiction!" |
