Kathleen McKenna's explosive third novel, The Wedding Gift, excels in so many categories it defies them all. It is a spine-electrifying supernatural tale where a huge Southern-states mansion contains one of the most terrifying, violent, and indeed psychopathic ghosts to haunt any town. It is also a murder mystery - why did Robina Willets apparently kill all five of her young children, and her husband, before stabbing herself to death? And, if you are in the camp of believing that justice....just is not, then this will have you frothing at the mouth with righteous social fury.
Add to that the vision of two exceptionally beautiful girls lying on a landing stage in the middle of a secluded lake, sleeping naked in the sun...and then see if you can find any consecutive 10 minutes in this book when you don't at least snicker at the heroine Leeann's sly, caustic, sometimes-knowing sometimes too stupid to live commentary.

"Good mix of humor, suspense, and romance. The last part of the book definitely had some twists I didn't expect." — Becky (4 out of 5 stars)

" read it in one evening... seriously creepy... "
" For me it was a little slow to start but it got really good about half way through. "
" I read this one in 24 hrs. I really enjoyed this book. Funny, scary, sad, all in one. "
" I rarely read much of the supernatural genre (outside of the occasional Stephen King or Dean Koontz), but this book was all right. "
" I don't read Horror stories much but this one turned out to be GOOD! Review Coming Soon! "
" Disliked the main character-Leeann. Selfish, shallow, vain, spoiled, immature, the list goes on and on. Couldn't get this imagined country twang voice out of my head as I read. "

" So far I am not to impressed. The main character is a gold digger and addicted to drugs and alcohol. It is a very slow read and I feel that since I spent so much time on it that I have no choice but to finish the book. "
" I DETESTED this story's heroine. "
" I enjoyed this book more than I thought I would. The writing style was a bit awkward for my taste, and there were more than a few instances where my inner editor really wanted to take a red pen to it, but the story itself was enjoyable. "
" good stuff. Very funny, eerie, and written as though the author really lived it. Nice job! "
