“…keeps the audience on the edge of their seats. A masterful piece of suspense writing that takes one unexpected turn after another yet has an emotional honesty that’s inevitable and compelling.”
- Sally Cragin, Arts Writer, Boston Globe and Boston Phoenix
“This Schrödinger’s Cat scenario is explored comprehensively via Taylor’s rhythmic dialogue. Sam and Chris riposte to and fro with the sort of casual offhandedness afforded to transient relationships. It’s almost flirtatious, but never dull, and the naturalness of their humour contrasts beautifully with the silent menace of the briefcase… a burst of applause to all concerned, and a note to other creators and publishers out there – this is an example worth following.

“Mind Expanding.”
- RRR
“…touches on the war on terror, notions of trust and suspicion and the bases for them, bigotry, credulity, offbeat romance, superstition, alienation and more. All this, from an abandoned bag on a suburban railway platform.”

- The Herald Sun
