“Filled with exotic characters and twisty plot turns.” – New York Stage Review

“White-knuckle suspense... packed with classic thriller tropes... [Cale] weaves in the themes that have long permeated his work, including the way people reinvent themselves, often to deal with trauma, and the need for transformation in the face of adversity.” – The New York Times

“A cross between Shirley Valentine in its depiction of a middle-aged woman's sexual reawakening, and Wait Until Dark with the rising suspense of a woman in mortal peril.” – Talkin' Broadway
