The rest of the book is chilling whenever the supernatural elements are involved. It is ironic though, that a seemingly supernatural event draws Fiona to Shillingstone, to investigate the kidnappings happening there. We tend to disregard voices, ghosts or the like because it is not scientifically explained and Fiona is just like that. I think the reason that the book is intriguing is because all of us, at some level do not believe in the supernatural. I’ve not seen many authors combine mystery and supernatural and I felt the author handled that well. This book outlines Fiona’s fourth mystery (yet, the first book in the series that I am reading) and a quirky one at that. But for the time I was reading the book, I was completely absorbed in it. It didn’t take me that long to finish reading the book. I literally left my work aside because I was so absorbed in the book. I sat curled one Saturday, with this book and then just kept reading it from cover to cover (well, ecover to ecover). I crave for a good mystery novel and this one certainly fit the bill. OMG!! A slow internet connection means I lost my earlier review!!Īnyway, I absolutely loved this book. Her world changes as she becomes the target of a depraved entity and finds herself drawn deep inside of a corrupt investigation involving supernatural beliefs she never knew existed. Children are disappearing from the small town of Shillingstone, and the townspeople blame a legendary nineteenth-century witch. “Fiona has no clue her bright summer vacation is about to darken.
