A Seneca Hunt Mystery
review 1: The book felt contrived, like everything happening was just a device to move the plot along, which is how every book works, but with this one I couldn't look past it. I couldn't just enjoy the book. I kept thinking, "The death at the beginning was just to motivate someone to solve a mystery, and this character showing up out of nowhere was just so they'd have access to inaccessible information," and things like that. The plot interested me enough to read until the end, because I wanted to know what was going to happen. However, most of the book was just unbelievable and I just couldn't really get into it. I won't be reading more by this author.
review 2: My first purchase from Kindle Daily Deals, and it was quite a good book! I thought the plot was put togethe
... morer well, and it definitely held my interest as it moved me from scene to scene and even year to year. I had a few very small qualms with the main character and how she processed what was happening around her (trying not to give anything away), but they were small and didn't detract from my enjoyment of the story. I enjoyed the story, and I'll likely try more Seneca Hunt novels in the future. less

Awesome book by a local author! Action/thriller with a supernatural twist. Very well done!
