That being said, I really liked this book and highly recommend this series!
Nana, Isla, Jace and Glo are great, well rounded characters with a great story as is, but throw in Jace's demigod cousin?! Good Gods the mysteries just keep coming.
I love the original characters, but it was refreshing to get introduced into new characters who are just as fun and vibrant. I am really looking forward to seeing what St. James has in store for them in the future.
I must admit I was left a little disappointed when it came to the climax, it felt rushed with hardly any detail, which was frustrating.
However, that aside, it was a great addition to the Enchanted Waters Mystery series
When a woman is murdered, Isla, Jace, and Glo find out that she had a priceless artifact in her possession. A few people on the island knew about it but not where it was hidden.
Jace's cousin, Kai, a demigod who also works for PADA has been tracking Isla's mom, Karina all over the world. He finally finds her on the island. All this time, Isla felt someone watching her, now she knows that it was her mom. So the 4 of them set up a trap to finally capture Karina for good.
In Ilsas' new investigation, she and Jayce, and Glo, of course need to find the murderer of a 92 year old retired librarian. The suspect list grows and the mystery of the artifact of the heartbeat of the sea and its' where abouts add to the mystery. Suspects, few leads, but the plot thickens when things seem to lead to Ilsas' elusive mother. Will she recover the artifact and solve who murdered the librarian? Yet again, Ms. StJames manages to weave a wonderful tale!
Absolutely fantastic continuation in the series! An Enchanted Waters Mystery series is incredibly well written by 2 amazing authors! In this book, Isla, Jace and Glo are trying to piece together what is the truth versus what are rumors to solve a completely shocking and somewhat gruesome murder. There are unexpected twists and turns with the introduction of new characters especially Kai! The characters stay strong and consistent. Great job Jenna and Stephanie!
The best yet! Another great addition to a fun series with wonderful characters in a wonderful setting. A lull in crime has the team looking at cold cases until the call comes that there is a murder.. Plenty of suspects and great misdirection. Jace’s cousin joins them on this hunt. Amazing conclusion. Can’t wait for the next book.
Book 6 has humor, murder, mystery, treasure, many paranormal creatures, big surprises, closure, and a Valentine's celebration. Jace's brother mysteriously appears and no one knows why. Highly entertaining.
