Twenty-Four HoursMahy, Margaret
Your Satisfaction is Guaranteed:
"The complexity of the ethical questions is nicely balanced by the psychologically realistic portrayals of the effect of the sect on characters in the past and present. A somewhat predictable dénouement doesn't prevent this from being an engaging and credible survival story of an unusual nature."
Kirkus, 08/15/2002
Review:"The setup and situation are absorbing indeed, and readers will immediately empathize with Kirby's anger in the face of her mother's desertion and her completely and unhappily transformed life."
Deborah Stevenson, Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books, December 2002
