"AN ABSORBING NOVEL THAT TAKES THE READER ON A SUSPENSEFUL JOURNEY THROUGH TIME, PLACE, AND MIND....
The instrument of the title belongs to a ghost, the brooding 19th century aristocrat Stefan, who ventures to 20th century New Orleans to brew up mischief and seek release from his torment. Told from the point of view of Triana, the humane woman drawn into Stefan's nefarious plot, the tale charts two lives touched by tragedy and alienation...A rich, detailed literary symphony."

- The Cleveland Plain Dealer
