What the critics say:

"Parker pieces together the puzzle of the past with both the mind of a reporter and the heart of a romantic." Stephen Patrick Clare: Halifax Chronicle Herald

"Parker reminds us that human life is fragile - individually and collectively - and our memories too easily lost unless we place value on our history and heritage." Ralph Higgins: Atlantic Books Today
