Widowed single-mother Blythe, moves back to the small town where she was raised, Crenshaw, Alabama, with her four-year-old daughter, Maddie. Soon after, Maddie starts having night terrors and Blythe begins to think that Maddie is being haunted by the ghost of a young girl who was murdered in this town twenty-five years ago, whose murder still remains unsolved, and whose murderer may still be living in this very town.

This was a really entertaining romantic suspense story with some very atmospheric and spooky suspense. The romance was barely there in this one but that didn't bother me at all since the suspense part was more interesting to me. I also liked the paranormal element with the possibility of a ghostly presence trying to get some justice. ( )

This book had me hooked right from the get go. The nightmares of Blythe's daughter and the strange tapping on the window when there is no one or anything outside that could have caused the noise. Gayle Wilson doled out a story of mystery, paranormal and thriller all in one.

Poor Blythe decides to research the death of the child who had been killed in the town 25 years ago. And she finds the case really interesting, but she seemed at odds as to telling people, including her grandmother what she really thought was going on at her house and with Maddie. Maddie is four-years-old and seems like a very good child. And the nightmares really don't seem to effect her any, cause she doesn't remember them when she has woken up. But as the story moves along, the plot thickens and really after you may have thought you knew who did it, then boy you'll be surprised at the end.

This book has it all, mystery, ghosts, and betrayal. I'm not going to spill out a lot about this book cause if I do I'd basically be telling you everything and then you won't see the need to read it. But if you've never read a book by Ms. Wilson - then I suggest that you give them a try. I know I'm going to be looking out for some of her other books (all of which you can find at her website). ( )
