"This series is literary comfort food for me. They tend to follow a pretty standard formula, which is fine because it is one that I love. However it is nice when they occasionly go down a different path, like this one did. It was very enjoyable."

    " the story line of this book was a little far fetched; Jessica is asked to Savannah to solve a forty year old murder. That said, it was an interesting story and I always love Jessica's novels! "

    " Always an easy fun read. Bought in Savannah at "The Book" bookstore while on vacation. The gal working there told me about her ghost encounter (that was mentioned in this book). She was thanked in the preface, so how could I not buy it and have her sign it?? :) "

    " It was, as my two star rating indicates, "okay." That having been said, it's one of the better books in this particular series. If you go in without high expectations, you'll find it to be a decent fun read. "

    " The third of the three MSW books I'd splurged on in the hopes of finding a new series to attach myself to. I'd managed to slog through the first two. Upon reading the first half chapter I realized I had better things to do than muck trough a third. "
