The novel won the 2002 Massachusetts Book Award for fiction and the 2002 Dilys Award. It was later adapted as the acclaimed 2003 film directed by Clint Eastwood. The story is noted for combining a tense murder investigation with themes of family, loyalty, vengeance, justice, and buried trauma.

The photographed interior pages appear clean and legible, without obvious writing, foxing, tears, or stains in the areas shown.
