review 1: The stories are good, the mysteries are good, the clues are good, and so I will keep reading. However, there is a Christian agenda, with a lot of mention given to abstinence. And while some of the jokes are funny, most, along with all of the conversations, are too cutesy, too sweet, slightly childish in tone. The language is too nice, it hurts the stories because it sounds so fake, for instance the harshest term used to describe a man who murdered his wife and three children is "creep." Really? I can think of much better words for a person like that. The violence, the criminals, the injuries sustained by the characters, the dangerous situations, are all in stark contrast to the light, almost silly, speech of the main characters. It's distracting. The editing in the Kindle ... moreedition of this book is abysmal too. The margins were all over the place and there were several obvious mistakes repeated throughout. I feel like this author has promise, because I appreciate the clues given to the mystery, and the twists in the outcomes, but it would not hurt the characters to be more true-to-life and speak like grown-ups.
review 2: Mary O'Reilly and Bradley Alden continue to search and learn what happened to his wife and child eight years earlier. Of course, Rosie and Stanley are with her when Mary moves into Bradley's old home. Mike the firefighter ghost hangs with Bradley and learns the truth about his chief. Ian, a professor from Scotland is introduced in this story, a paranormal investigator for criminal studies. Jeanine, Bradley's wife undergoes hypnosis with the help of Ian and Mary. Jeanine being a ghost, needs Mary's body to be able to be hyponized. The journey takes them to uncovering the bad guy and the truth of how Jeanine was killed. Bradley learns his daughter is still alive and the search begins with the help of Mary's cop brother. Some will find the story a bit far fetched and some will find it a bit old fashion. It is a quick read and you really want to learn the killer's identity after five books. less
