( )I really enjoyed this book and like reading stories by this author. It took me a few chapters to get into this book then I couldn't put it down and finished it in one day. Good mystery. Nikki DuMonde's newest employee is standing at the end of her bed at four o'clock in the morning begging for help. It's a joke, right? Besides, as manager of a successful New Orleans haunted-tour company, Nikki doesn't scare easily. But in the light of day, harsh reality sets in as a police officer informs her that Andy was brutally murdered - at the exact time Nikki swears the distraught woman was in her room. No one believes her except Brent Blackhawk, a paranormal investigator desperately trying to forget his tragic past. Half Irish, half Lakota - and able to communicate with the dead - Brent is used to living in two worlds. But when he realizes the ghost of a slain government agent is also trying to reach out to Nikki, he knows that she, too, must listen to the dead...if she wants to keep living. Very poorly written. This was my first book by this author and I was very pleased!! The only thing that stopped me from giving it 5 stars was that I felt parts were dragged on a little bit too long. But other then that this book was really amazing! I loved the history and descriptions that went into the story. It had me searching online for a Native American Legend of the White Buffalo Woman. And of course reading about how New Orleans was before Hurrican Katrina gave me more of a sense of loss for everyone who had to suffer through such a horrible time. But on a good note, I loved the twists and turns in the mystery and will be looking forward to reading more from Heather Graham (also known as Shannon Drake) soon. no reviews | add a review
