About this ebook


From NYT bestselling author Patricia Rice—the first in a new contemporary romantic mystery series featuring her Malcolm/Ives family!

 


A lawman haunted by his past . . . a scientist haunted by her future.


 Samantha Moon arrives in Hillvale— population 325 lives and countless ghosts—in a fog as thick as the one circling the aging mountain town. Bereft of friends and family, money and memory, all she has to her name is a stray cat . . . but that's apparently enough for the people of Hillvale to take her in.

 L.A. investigator Chen Ling Walker's problem is too many memories. He's come to bury his tragic past in this remote California town, where his father vanished years before. Ever watchful, Walker sees how Sam's arrival disturbs the deceptive peace of Hillvale. Old bones lead to new death, stirring ancient fears and feuds.

 Sam will need Walker's help to uncover the truth of who she is and face the burden that brings. But how can he accept a reality that stretches beyond the borders of what he knows -- one that contains spirits, psychics, and imaginary voices—the weirdness that ruined his life before?

 And if they survive what lies ahead, will they find any way to make a future together?

I wasn't too sure if I'd like this as I often find contemporary stories somewhat flat, but the mention of magic had me. Sam's story held my attention from start to finish. Hillvale is an itsy bitsy town full of wacky people with a wealthy "first family" dominating with its financial power. This could be classified as a romantic suspense with a touch of magic, however, there are no graphic sex scenes. I'm curious what the rest of this series will bring. I received a free copy and voluntarily read and reviewed it.

Ms Rice has a great writing skill. Her story lines are complicated and captivating. Strange, unusual abilities of her characters are an integral part of the plot. I could not put the book down and read far into the night! Then, woke up early to read more. Thank you, Patricia.
