review 1: While technically this was a ghost story, fans of traditional horror might be disappointed. To me this was much more of a morality fable on the importance of social connections in one's life than any sort of a haunting situation. It can even be read as a mystery thriller. Nevertheless, haunting does take place and a ghost with unfinished business with liberal helping of guilt drives an antisocial lonely traffic reporter to step out of his shell, do uncharacteristically daring acts and solve a crime. So there are various elements of different genres well blended together for a pretty enjoyable book and a good first impression from a new author. Granted, the moral was a tad heavy handed and it wasn't particularly original, but overall solid entertainment and a perfectly dece... morent way to spend two and a half hours. Yes, it's that quick of a read.
review 2: Really interesting story set in my hometown area of Washington, DC! This book was recommended to me by a friend who also lives in the area, and I have to say it was a good recommendation. The story flowed well and while it was not necessarily a "scary" ghost story, it definitely kept my attention the entire time. I don't want to give anything away, but there are definite surprises as you get further into the book. Highly recommended. less
