Kirkus Reviews:

- "A thief and a liar at 14, Bobby is furious with his mother for moving the family to the sticks to get him away from the trouble he’s been up to in Dublin. Taken on by an older gang for his youth and speed, Bobby wants the excitement of drugs, booze and the burning of stolen cars that gave his life thrills. The country is boring. He is initially skeptical of his younger brother’s accounts of the “little woman” who drinks the milk in the nighttime, but spooky details of the history of their little cottage gradually turn Bobby into a detective of night creatures real and imagined. ..."
