The Women’s Literary Team review
“An exceptionally well-written novel with action, adventure and reversals. It is a journey through place and time with the invention of the Dutch East India Company’s Academy for gifted children. The work strikes a happy balance between the real and the fantastic.
The awards Committee congratulates the writer on her success.”
