Cass sucked in a breath, the gasp audible in the silence of the small room. Oh no . . . The walls pressed in on her, loomed over her, threatened to suffocate her. This can’t be
happening again.
“Is everything
all
right?”
“Umm . .
. sure.” Darkness encroached, tunneling her
vision. She forced it
back, counted to ten, took deep breaths—anything to fight back the blackness. She struggled
against the urge to push the glass ball away from her. “Sorry. I must have
zoned out for
a minute.”
She averted her gaze, hoping
the other
woman
wouldn’t catch the
lie.
The woman’s eyebrows drew together, a frown creasing
her forehead.
“Are you sure
you
didn’t see
anything
bad?”
Cass forced a laugh as she shoved her chair back, stood,
and moved away from the table. “Of course not. I told you
I would
only allow good
spirits to enter.” Liar.
This exciting adventure has everything you want in a cozy mystery except a cat. There is an adorable, drooly, fluffball puppy and unfortunately psychic Cass did not foresee his effect on her future.
This fascinating story takes place after tourist season has ended and most of the people around town know each other and each other's business. Gossip and suspicion play major roles.
The main characters are creative types, one especially with a dramatic flair. Three best friends that show up for each other even when they wish they could do anything else.
Add in a handsome stranger with a delectable accent and a propensity for showing up at prime moments, and whether you believe in ghosts and spirits or not, this book is very hard to set down.
Even with a murderer on the loose, reading this book made me wish I could visit Bay Island.
I want to read more about the people I met there.
