Realistic mystery. Well done! This is not my typical genre because it's usually too unrealistic, so when I decided to try this book, I wasn't expecting much. However, I was very pleasantly surprised! Not only did the characters seem real but the mystery itself was woven into the story seamlessly.The dual timeline added a nice twist and was quite interesting. Although there was romance in the book, it was secondary, which I prefer. It's amazing that this is the author's debut novel because it was excellent. Extremely captivating with just the right amount of suspense to keep me turning the pages as fast as possible.I enjoyed this book so much. If other authors would follow suit in writing a realistic mystery/suspense novel, I may give romantic suspense another try. Very well done, Jaime Jo Wright. You nailed it! I look forward to reading more by this author.Downright Chilling! Excellent debut novel by Jamie Jo Wright. I don't usually read dual time novels, but the cover of this book just drew me in. The book is every bit as chilling as the cover. It contains all the elements necessary for a great suspense novel - unexplained occurrences, suspicious characters, as well as the spooky old house. Wright balances these with a touch of romance for the two women who find themselves gripped by the mystery of Foster Hill House in two different times. She connects the stories beautifully. I can't wait to read more from this author.Gripping suspense...exceptional debut! In her debut novel, Author Jaime Jo Wright has delivered a compelling tale of murder and mystery through a time split story-line connected by an old abandoned house, the lives it touched, and the long protected secrets it holds. Gripping suspense, multiple plot twists, hair raising terror, and well developed characters travel across the pages and I found myself riveted by Kaine Prescott's and Ivy Thorpe's lives as they converged at The House on Foster Hill. Wright has woven a dual story so intricately entwined it took me to the end of the book to unravel and reveal the truth. And, it was a surprise...not what I was expecting at all. The seamless transition from one era to the other kept the smooth rhythm of the story flowing and held me captive with each turn of the page to the very end.Though the story in both eras has a dark and ominous feel to it, it also offers light and life. Intertwined with the frightening evil that overshadows the house, a legacy of hope rises and shines through the strong women who refuse to let the house's secret ruin their lives or force them to live in fear; women who look to an eternal future. Wright does an exceptional job weaving faith into everyday moments in a natural, unforced way...as it should be. Talk of God's love and His promises written in scripture were flawlessly laid within casual conversation and deep reflections by the characters. Wright has crafted a well written debut and is an author to watch in the coming years. I look forward to more from her.
