Review
Will Eloise choose Jenilee or Jack before she is
murdered?
I actually
loved the twists and turns in this plot. That being said the reason it received
only a 4 instead of 5, is the first few chapters, to all appearances, were
incongruent. One later realizes this knowledge was necessary to the plot,
however, I wish it could have been introduced a little less bumpy. The rest of
the book flowed easily along and swept me along to where I could not put it
down. I needed to know what happened next, not want, I needed. Mostert kept her cards close all the way to
the end of the book. The answer to the above question posed as teaser is all
the way in the epilogue, and no, I do not give spoilers, please find the answer
in the book.
Although I
did not think a couple of the beginning chapters flowed together, they stilled
were quite a joy to read. They just gave the impression of puzzle pieces from
the wrong puzzle, but it turns out that you do need them for this outstanding
Paranormal, Sci Fi, and Mystery work. So if you are into Paranormal, Sci Fi, or
Mystery you will like this novel. If you like all three, you are going to love
Mostert for this great journey she takes you on. Enjoy the ride, I know I did.
