READ MY REVIEW ON AMAZON:
https://www.amazon.com/review/R2U9UURB0XUBTB/
I loved this book and C. Lee McKenzie is an all-time favorite of mine.
When I heard it had elements of the supernatural in it, I just had to read it.
For those of you who know my novels, you will understand.
It was riveting and written in such a way the prose drew you in and kept you turning each page.
There is suspense, mystery, and a dangerous, forbidden love to boot.
Her portrayal of the pathos, confusion, and loneliness of Catherine,
the ghost caught in the limbo between the living and the dead, is so well done that your arms long to hug her ... if you could only touch her that is.
Jonah, new to the town but not to trouble, finds that the desert town of Rattlesnake is just as friendly as its name ...
with deadly inhabitants like Boone, the bullying store owner and his dysfunctional son, Snake, who more than earns his nickname.
A feisty aunt, his quick-witted sister, Allie, add to the relocated family dynamic.
Oh, and did I mention the abandoned gold mine on their property ...
whose gold may not be a thing of the past ... but the very secret which is binding Catherine to this plane ... and a wrongly solved murder.
Jonah and his sister discover that entering a ghost's world is not just a step into the past ... but into deadly peril and mystery.
Lee will be happy to hear you enjoyed it.
