I absolutely loved this newest book by Jaime Jo Wright. I admit, I was a bit hesitant at first, knowing that spiritualism was going to be a part of the story. But, having read her previous books, I figured the focus would be on the biblical truths, and that trying to communicate with the dead would be frowned upon.
I enjoyed both time lines and learning how they related to each other.
The characters were well developed and I grew to care for them and the struggles they were going through. Perliett lives in 1910 and it is her mother who delves into spiritualism and trying to communicate with the dead. Perliett herself is seen as a “quack” by the local doctor because of her use of home remedies. The book begins with a murder in their small, rural farming community.
In the current timeline we learn that Molly and her husband have just purchased the “murder house” which is related to the murder in 1910. Molly is dealing with depression related to her miscarriages and is experiencing visions related to what she presumes are murders from 1910 along with a murder that happened just down the road.
The author’s typical creepy story with the inclusion of biblical truths was there. I loved the suspense and the twists, and love how the truth is slowly revealed.
Another wonderful book by Jaime Jo Wright!
