A well-written, mystery story with a female protagonist who sees ghosts.
I have never read a ghost story quite like this. It takes place in the southern United States and many of the main characters are African American or bi-racial. The protagonist, Eden, is a strong character who was used to being different, not just for her ethnicity, but because of her special ability to speak to the dead. I think this made her drive and her strength more believable.
I didn't get into this at first because the story starts with Eden as a child and I was kind of bored. I am so glad that I kept reading! The story quickly progresses through Eden's childhood and the pacing picks up.
I enjoyed the prose and the southern voice in this novel. If she writes another book, I will read it.
