Publisher Description
Emerging from the bayou like an apparition, Donegal Plantation is known for its unsurpassed dining, captivating atmosphere, haunting legends…and now a corpse swinging from the marble angel that marks its cemetery’s most majestic vault. A corpse discovered in nearly the same situation as that of Marshall Donegal, the patriarch killed in a skirmish just before the Civil War.
Desperate for help traditional criminologists could never provide, plantation heiress Ashley Donegal turns to an elite team of paranormal investigators who blend hard forensics with rare—often inexplicable—intuition. Among them is Jake Mallory, a gifted New Orleans musician with talent that stretches beyond the realm of the physical, and a few dark ghosts of his own.
The evil the team unveils has the power to shake the plantation to its very core. Jake and Ashley are forced to risk everything to unravel secrets that will not stay buried—even in death….

"An enticing romantic suspense ghost story that envelopes the old south as well as a contemporary one. Heather Graham takes a civil war reenactment and weaves in a murder mystery that had this reader guessing till the very end. I also have found another favorite narrator; Luke Daniels will now be at the top of the list along with Susan Ericksen as some of the best narrators to date on audio books."

" Another fantastic book by Heather Graham. Each book I have read are wonderful. She never disappoints! "

" This is the second series I've attempted to read by Heather Graham and I think before I read another of the books in this series I'm going to have to read something in between. I find that she's pretty good at stand alone books but when it comes to series the books after the first book always seem to lack something. "

" Classic Heather Graham and very enjoyable. "
— Ericka, 1/29/2014 -
" 2.5 stars - pretty predictable - review to follow. "
— Shannon, 1/24/2014 -

" This is the first book in a trilogy. After an war enactment on a plantation, one of the team goes missing and turns up dead in the family cemetery. Who is next and what does a long ago ancestor turn up to haunt the mistress of the house about? Secrets to uncover. A great read. "

" Very good "ghost" story. It grabbed me straight away and didn't let go. Exactly what I expect when I read a Heather Graham novel. "
— Julianna, 12/30/2013 -
" It took me awhile to get going with this one, but once I got into it I really enjoyed the suspense. Often I can figure out who done it, but I was totally surprised. "
— Cynthia, 12/26/2013 -
" i made it about five pages but didn't like the writing style "
— Amie, 12/25/2013 -
" This book wasn't bad but it's not my favorite style. It's a murder mystery/ghost story/romance. I can see the series developing into something more full and interesting with future books. "
— Tracie, 12/25/2013 -
" I'm just loving these ghost stories! "
— Laurie, 12/23/2013 -
" I'm really enjoying this series. They do tend to swing towards the harlequin romance in the middle, but the paranormal and mystery aspects are definitely most prominent, which is what I like. On to the next in the series! "
— Meredith, 12/10/2013 -
" I really like this book. At the beginning, it was a little slow with the backstory, but then it took off. If you like a who-dun-it mixed with the paranormal this is a fast read. "
— M.L., 11/16/2013 -
" Great ghost story and great mystery. I was left wondering. A lot of times in mysteries you can figure out the 'whodunit' early on but I couldn't in this one. I love this series! "
— Kelly, 10/28/2013 -
" This was a good ghost story but not as gripping as some of Graham's other works. "
— Mikki, 4/26/2013 -
" This another good book featuring the Krewe of Hunters. I love the way Ms. Graham weaves the supernatural with real world crime. You never know who's guilty 'til the very end and I love that! "
— Sharla, 10/30/2012 -
" Excellent read. Keeps you in suspense til' the end. "
— Nancy, 9/5/2012 -
" It was a good book but not one of her best. I am definitely going to have to read the other two in the trilogy, though, so I guess it is deserving of three stars. "
— Heather, 6/19/2012 -
" pretty good. I thought Ashely was a little emotional at the beginning for pushing Jake away just because he can commincate with ghost. "
— Brianna, 5/17/2012 -
" Slow start. I thought I would never get through the reenactment. "
— Ginny, 12/13/2011 -
" I really liked this story as well. However, it is hard to believe a crime was committed due to a 150 year old grudge. Despite this, the action involved is suspenseful enough and keeps you guessing. "
