Praise for Ray Nayler
'first-rate science fiction' - CORY DOCTOROW
'masterful' - SCIFI MIND
'intelligent, ambitious and thought-provoking' SFF WORLD
'cerebral' GUARDIAN
June 1941, Eastern Europe. As the German blitzkrieg tears across a divided continent, four young lives are thrown into chaos: Neriya, a young Jewish girl who dreams of becoming a scientist; Czesław, an underage Polish deserter fleeing the Red Army; Kezia, a Roma horse trader whose family is on the run from Soviet collectivisation; and a nameless,, abandoned boy who cannot speak.
Driven deep into the Lithuanian woods, they form an unbreakable bond with one another and with a flock of crows whose uncanny intelligence hints at a secret older and stranger than they could ever have imagined.

Critic reviews
A brilliant . . . blend of history and fantasy
An impassioned paean to togetherness even in the midst of the chaotic isolation of war and to the power of storytelling to keep memory and hope alive
