Congratulations to author D. L. Finn on her latest release, Sounds In The Silence. I really enjoyed!
Book Overview
A dual timeline where murder has consequences forty years later for the living—and the deceased.Maria and Logan Davis stumbled upon the perfect old house by a secluded lake—a prime candidate for their dream inn. They knew a renovation was involved but didn’t expect a persistent ghost that pleaded to be found. Determined, Maria delved into the mystery, only to uncover a haunting love story and murder from the Roaring Twenties. Yet, the young couple’s curiosity shifts to fear when they realize someone is taking a dangerous interest in their barn. With time ticking away, they must unravel the secrets of their home’s past before it’s too late.
My Review
This is such a heart warming mysterious story with romantic, and ghostly elements.
A trapped ghost Helen is unable to get her message about her husband Charles across to the new owners of the inn, Logan and Maria. Terrible past events happened. She fears for Logan and Maria’s safety and wants justice to prevail so she can find happiness in the afterlife.
I really enjoyed this tale. The premise for the story is fantastic. It is told in a dual time style between the 1920’s, (mention of bible bashing and condemnation of drinking during prohibition,) and the 1960’s. The characters both human and furry… (there are two dogs and two cats too,) are well drawn out and the good guys are ones you can root for and sympathise with.
The initial ghost discovery wasn’t as eerie as I expected but the ghost is a friendly one.
It is quite exciting in parts with grim discoveries, a mysterious letter and gun shots firing!
Highly recommended for readers of mysteries, ghost tales with a romantic element running throughout the narrative.
Rating 4.5 stars
