I simply can't understand why SB is not more popular. I think her publishers is not pushing her to the right crowd. She should be along side Chelsea Cain, and early LKH. Mary Crow is not some frilly, little thing and I think that SB is worthy of hanging with the big guns for real. her novels are excellent, every time, start to finish. Does anyone remember that series about two brothers who were rock climbers, one was a lawyer, one kind of a criminal? Those novels were great! Where is the guy? who knows! but I think that Sallie is right up there with Nevada Barr and should get a lot more recognition. ( ) 5th in the Mary Crow mystery series -- it was a long wait for this excellent addition to a favorite series, but well worth it. I have missed the two main continuing characters as I would distant family, and it's good to reune. The story was easy to follow but tough to figure out, with subtle clues that were apparent only after they were no longer needed! I said "I shoulda known that!" more than once. A thoroughly enjoyable read, and I'm so glad that another book is scheduled for next year! 4 STARS Music of Ghosts (Mary Crow, book 5) This is my first Mary Crow novel that I have read. The characters are well defined and I had no idea of where the story was going in her personal and professional life. The drama was going till the end. Some of it I did not like but hopefully thier will be another book out soon. The Suspense held up for me. I did not guess who the murder was or how. Once I started reading I did not put the book down till it was done. I liked the story and look forward to reading more Mary Crow stories in the future. Mary Crow is a lawyer, who helped her county get a sports park built. Mary was at the grand opening ceramony and she was worried that her family did not come for it. They did. Mary lives with her boyfriend Jonathon Walkingstick and his nine year old daughter. They have been together for years. This past month since they got back from a month visit with his daughter's grandparents at court order visit they both had changed toward her. Mary is afraid Jonathon has found someone else while he was gone. The day before the sports park opened a bunch of collage interns at raptor rehab center went up to camp at a old haunted house back in the country. One of the girls was then murdered up thier. The Sherrif went up to the murder scene instead of welcoming the Governor of North Carolina for the ribbon ceramony. He found out that Lisa was killed and had carvings all over her body. Lisa was also a daughter of a former North Carolina Governor. He now had a high profile case on his hands. Mary Crow no longer did murder cases because Jonathon had asked her not to while his daughter lived at home. When things were falling apart in her personal life Nick Stratton asked her to represent him. She took the case. Mary unraveled it piece by piece while waiting for her own personal life hang in the balance with the help of good friends she found the answers. I have the feeling that a lot of Mary's friends have been in earlier books. I know I would like to read them sometime in the future. If your a Mary Crow fan I think you will like this. If you like mysteries that keep you guessing this will be a good one to read. I was given this ebook to read and asked to give a honest review in return from Netgalley. 04/08/2012 PUB Midnight Ink ISBN9780738735849 384 pages North Carolina, the hollers of the Appalachians, their myths and folklore and fiddle music make up the story in this new novel featuring Mary Crow. Enjoy this series quite a bit, it is well written, has a wonderful leading character in Mary Crow, who is a Cherokee and a lawyer. Good combination of story-line and personal life, both which are very interesting. Love the setting and it is described so well one can picture themselves in the place and time. Good mystery and a good solid series. Oh and I found out something I did not know about the author. She was the ghostwriter for the children's Saddle Club series. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

Fiddlesticks killed her with his razor. Slit her throat and then forgave her. Deep in the Appalachian woods stands the old Fiddlesticks cabin, the scene of a bloody double murder from decades past. Now the haunted cabin lures young thrill seekers who hope to hear the killer's ghostly fiddle music. When a group of college students comes to call, Lisa Wilson--the daughter of a former North Carolina governor--is tragically murdered, and her flesh is mutilated with disturbing symbols. Pisgah County sheriff Jerry Cochran is in hot water when the ball-busting politician shows up, threatening to tear the county apart in search of his daughter's killer. But Nick Stratton--the handsome raptor center specialist and Lisa's boss--is in even hotter water when evidence points to him as the prime suspect. As Nick turns to attorney Mary Crow for help, it's up to the Pisgah County native to discover the truth. Did Nick do it? Or is there a deranged mountain killer on the loose? Praise: "Bissell's fifth Mary Crow novel is an eerie tale that skillfully weaves folklore, Cherokee tradition and familial angst." --RT Book Reviews Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
