I definitely recommend this book if you are interested in Sarah Penner and her works, she has a very beautiful writing style that is easy to read yet gripping for the reader. It was interesting, seductive and focused upon powerful women achieving what they want. Nonetheless, I did enjoy the overall plot of this novel. I wish this trope was used less in novels of this genre. Having met people like this in the real world it is very difficult to sway them of their beliefs as they always have a way of justifying, regardless of what evidence you present.

One of the main reasons I gave this book a three star rating is purely because in novels of this parameter we are always introduced to a character, whether that be a main character or side, who is of logical and scientific mind but quickly is turned to the occult due to one incident. Nonetheless, the way Sarah Penner writes is a delight to read, she really captures the scenes and the personality of her characters throughout her writing. I would have enjoyed the mystery part of the novel more if it was quicker to the punch. You are introduced to the main plot at the very first instance, however, the continuation of the tale was slow. The book started off strong, drawing you straight into the world of the occult and supernatural. I thoroughly enjoyed reading from both perspectives, and, it helped to understand the story further. Sarah Penner is excellent at bringing a story even more depth and understanding through the use of a multiple perspectives.
