I was a little skeptical when I realized that the main character of this novel was going to be psychic divorced woman who had recently lost her son. I was worried that it would be a little heavy handed or over the top, or something. But I actually got really absorbed into this mystery - I loved it! Also, I totally didn't see twist/ resolution coming, which is another sign of a good mystery. The story moved at a good pace and I found I was able to read it more quickly than I expected.

This book has also reenergized my love of southern gothic (which is fabulous - I forgot how much I love the atmosphere, setting, and feeling of well done southern gothic stories). Overall, I enjoyed this enough that I definitely want to keep going with the series :)
