Group Comments/Reviews:

Slightly positive but a bit of a slog. I didn’t mind the supernatural part–not over done, but too much of the Ryan character and not enough mystery.

Parts were excellent and parts were very confusing. I didn’t resonate with the astrology part. Overall I liked it.

Easy read, but I didn’t enjoy the ending. Believing in a supernatural element is key to the resolution. The end was too sudden.

Intense interrelationships of all the characters was very interesting–and convenient for the plot. Brought to mind courtroom TV dramas.

I liked this book. Felt like a paperback thriller, not a mystery. Liked the setting, really well done.

I really loved this book!

I really liked this book. The characters were intriguing and I liked all but the astrology part. Gradual peeling away of circumstances, people and past to bring us to the resolution.

I didn’t like this book. I thought it started well with a good wrinkle. But the 9 year old kid’s voice was so irritating and poor writing. The astrology and channeling to solve the mystery doesn’t do it for me.

Middle of the road for me. Predictable. The astrology part was okay but I wanted more of the mystery.

I liked it. Lots to keep track of but it tied up really well. Florida imagery was lovely. Easy read.
