Advance praise for "The Tin Horse"
"In the wry and witty voice of retiree Elaine Greenstein, author Janice Steinberg brings the bygone Jewish immigrant L.A. neighborhood of Boyle Heights to vibrant life. Part mystery, part sister story, part family history, "The Tin Horse" is a completely immersive reading experience. I closed the pages feeling as though I'd lived another life."--Margaret Dilloway, author of "How to Be an American Housewife"
"Steinberg's novel introduced me to a dramatic piece of L.A.'s history through the story of the Greenstein family, set in prewar Jewish Boyle Heights. Fascinating and meticulously rendered."--Janelle Brown, author of "All We Ever Wanted Was Everything"
Advance praise for "The Tin Horse"
"Steinberg, the author of five mysteries, has transcended genre to weave a rich story that will appeal to readers who appreciate multigenerational immigrant family sagas as well as those who simply enjoy psychological suspense."--"BookPage"
"Steinberg . . . has crafted a novel rich in faith, betrayal, and secrecy that explores the numerous ways people are shaped and haunted by their past. . . . A sweeping family saga reminiscent of the writing of Pat Conroy, where family secrets and flashbacks combine to create an engrossing tale of growth and loss. Highly recommended for fans of family drama and historical fiction."--"Library Journal"
"Steinberg's quietly suspenseful novel is compelling by virtue of her sympathetic characters, vivid depiction of WWII-era Los Angeles, and pinpoint illuminations of poverty, anti-Semitism, family bonds and betrayals, and the crushing obstacles facing women seeking full and fulfilling lives."--"Booklist"
