Another Great Story from 1 of my fav authors
I may be a little biased, but J.S. Donovan does it again! This is a two part series. Both of the books can be read alone, but I recommend reading both to get the full and complete experience. I felt like the characters could simply walk off the page. The depth of the characters descriptions, was that good. The storyline flowed smoothly and kept my full attention. I will say that the story did take a few chapters to become fully vested in the characters and story. There were a few misplaced and misspelled words, but definitely not enough to make me stop reading. There is an ending, but it's kind of an open ending, so I'm hoping that there will be a book 3. These books are filled with drama, humor, suspense a bit of the supernatural and of course love. I really appreciate that the author created these wonderful books, without the need of 4 letter words or mature bedroom scenes. I would definitely recommend this series. You're welcome!

Excellent
I read these stories as single books. But it was a joy to read them again in this collection. I like the detectives and how they blindly trust each other. They make a great team. The orphans make for a good read.

Too gory for me
Poor Highlands, NC. who would want to visit there? For such a small town there are lots of murders, especially of children. And I don't want to read about abused children.

Great series!
Enjoyed the series and can’t wait for more stories with Detective Halloway! This could be a great story line with Rachel and Mallory teaming up to solve crimes.
