"This was, I think, the best book in the series so far. The first few were plagued by an awkwardness, as the author made the protagonist find her place in the series plot in a piecemeal, frustrating fashion that often made me want to toss the book across the room, but I'm glad I stuck with this series. This book has her in control of what's going on around her, but having to decide if the impact on her life is worth it. I really look forward to the next book in the series.A"

Angel's Verdict Listener Reviews

" I enjoyed the twist Stanton threw into this book, but felt the unexplained healing was unsupported and could have been a stronger aspect of the story with a bit more detail/story. I get the feeling that the author does not know where she's going or how to explain this aspect, but wanted to include it. "

" I don't normally leap into the middle of a series, but this one had been passed on to me and I needed something lightweight to read. Lightweight it is, but the supernatural world it creates has the potential to be something more, so I plan to read more in the series. "
— Sian, 2/12/2014 -
" I thoroughly enjoy this series and would recommend it to anyone! The Savannah setting is true to form and brings back wonderful memories of visits past. "
— Kathy, 2/7/2014 -
" Another in this really fun series that combines a bit of horror, some mystery, some good detective work and law, some angels, and some good lessons about getting what's coming to you -- both good and bad. The only problem with this one was that it just seemed a little short -- I wanted more. "
— Deanna, 1/25/2014 -
" Impressive mystery series involving angels. "

— Beverly, 12/29/2013 -

" This was a quick read. I like how the mysteries tie in with the paranormal. "
— Kristin, 11/25/2013 -
" The clues were there, but subtly enough that I didn't guess until it was revealed. I love the characters, with southern charm but steely resolve. "
— Jill, 11/18/2013 -
" Well, that didn't take long to read...will keep following this series as I like the setting and the temporal/celestial parallel caseload, and the characters are all entertaining and well-done. "
— Trish, 7/20/2013 -
" It was just as good a read as the ones before but I missed a clue somewhere along the line. I am intrigued how the author handles the celestial beings and their comings and goings as not much had been explained at all before. Hopefully she will let us in on more of that as the series progresses. "
— Lisa, 7/17/2013 -
" 4th in the series. Can be read as a stand alone, but chracter development will be lost. Great mystery with lots of twists and turns. i am looking forward to book 5's release. If you like a good murder mystery with a paranormal twist, you will enjoy this series. "
— Kimba, 1/25/2013 -
" This has to be my favorite book in this series so far. "
— Jeanette, 7/21/2012 -

— Eero, 12/7/2011 -
" This one took me soooo long to read. I don't know what the deal was about it. The ending was quite a surprise!! "
— Kimmie, 11/14/2011 -
" The premise for this clever paranormal series is definitely a pleasant change from the majority of cozy mysteries we see written. Plus, this 4th installment was well crafted with several great twists before it was done! "
