Publisher Description

A year ago, archaeologist Leslie MacIntyre barely survived the explosion that took the life of her fiancé, Matt Connolly. In the long months since, she’s slowly come to terms not only with her loss but with her unsettling new ability to communicate with ghosts, a dubious “gift” received in the wake of her own brush with death.

Now she’s returned to lower Manhattan’s historic Hastings House, site of the explosion, to conquer her fears and investigate a newly discovered burial ground. In this place restless spirits hold the secrets not only of past injustice but of a very real and very contemporary conspiracy with deadly designs on the city’s women—including Leslie herself.

By night Matt visits her in dreams, warning her and offering clues to the truth, while by day she finds herself helped by—and attracted to—his flesh-and-blood cousin Joe. Torn by her feelings for both men, caught between the worlds of the living and the dead, Leslie struggles against the encroaching danger that threatens to overcome her. As she is drawn closer to the darkness at the heart of Hastings House, she must ultimately face the power of an evil mind, alone in a place where not even the men she love can save her.

"Doesn't have as much of the ghostly communication that the other Harrison Investigation books do. The ending is a bit different from most romantic suspense books, but an astute reader can guess what will happen based on who the main character is having sex with - oops, I mean 'making love'. :P"

    " Fun take on someone who sees ghosts, although I felt that the main characters were sometimes a little dim. Maybe it is frequently that way with omniscient point of view, but I always wanted to tell Leslie to catch a clue. Anyway, fun and suspensful. "

    " Heather Graham books are things I seem to periodically revisit ... I'm always sure I'm going to like them more than I do. They're generally entertaining, but not what I'd call riveting, and The Dead Room was no different. The concept that the main character survives a deadly accident (her fiance does not), only to realize she can communicate with ghosts is certainly an interesting one, but I just never felt the tension I know Graham was trying for. And I felt like the ending was frustrating, but then again, Graham probably is writing, or already has written a follow up novel that will include some of the same characters. "

    " Interesting read, but too many loose ends for it to be enjoyable. Also, the motive of the killer so does not add up, it's like she just picked one at random and hurried away to dream up a motive. Apart from the identity, it was still ok "

    " Although much of The Dead Room is a typical romance/mystery, Graham's touch, light but firm, of the supernatural made it more. Throw in urban archeology, in New York(!), and it was nearly worth four stars. "

    " A quick read, like most of her paranormal romance novels. I liked this better than the last one and not nearly as much as the first book (Ghost Walk) that I read. She seems to be a hit-or-miss kind of author for me. "

    " Like most of Heather Graham's books, this is formulaic, however that didn't stop me from enjoying it! I like a book that I can escape into at the end of the day. Supernatural suspense, who done it, and a little romance. What's not to like? "

    " I failed to get into this book as much as I usually do with her books. for some reason, I failed to connect with the female lead or the male lead in this story which made it hard for me to enjoy the book. It was still an okay book, but not her far by a long shot "

    " I like books that involve archealogy and I was intrigued by the fact that there is a whole, underground world beneath Manhattan. I also could buy the paranormal, psychic themes of this book, but the ghost sex put my over the edge. I'm not mad that I read this book, but I for sure didn't love it! "

    " The plot was good the story well thought out. But once again I didn't like the characters. It's hard to like a novel if the characters don't appeal to you for whatever reason. They seemed to lack depth. Something was just 'off'. "
