STAR RATINGS GUIDE
Quirky and Endearing. Plot takes Second Place.
THE BIRDICT
💗 Telling the story from 10-year-old Grace's perspective completely transforms what might otherwise be a true crime story into something far more playful and innocent. The depiction of a small town in the seventies is well observed and evocative.
💛 There are definite parallels between this and the excellent Elizabeth Is Missing.
SQUAWKING THE TALK
🎧 Paula Wilcox is an absolute star as the narrator. Quirky and charming as Grace, she is also incredibly versatile, doing a great job of differentiating characters.
