Do You like book The Dead Room (2007)?
UNPUTDOWNABLE!!!I had a major hard time putting down this book. Last night, after my hubby went to bed, I was somewhere between halfway and 2/3's of the way through the book. Every time I purposely put it down so that I could go to bed, knowing I was getting up early with 5 kids to watch, my mind 'objected' and I had no choice but to pick it back up. Going to bed not knowing what was going to happen bugged the daylights out of me!It was great! I thought the plot was good, small events leading to the biggest - and definitely most surprising! I thought Leslie was a strong woman, everything she went through, and still she pushes through, day after day. She doesn't like what happens, but she faces it. And I thought Joe, Matt's cousin, was just the man she needed for help. I can tell you that I was way off one who the 'bad guy' was... WAY OFF! And the ending of the last chapter ... holy freaking crow! I didn't see that coming in a million years! The Epilogue leaves way to speculation, and I liked that.Two recurring characters showed up. Adam Harrison of Harrison Investigations and Nikki Blackhawk from Graham's previous novel, Ghost Walk, is back in this novel - it was nice to read about the both of them.Lots of action and questions, speculation... A great story!

Leslie survives the bomb blast that kills the man she loves and sends her to the hospital. After that she can see ghosts. When she returns a year later to the Hastings House where the bomb went off she desperately wants to see Matt. Joe, Matt's cousin, comes into her life. Joe is a PI who has been hired to find a wealthy woman's niece who has gone missing. Joe and Leslie seem to be thrown together at every turn and Joe feels protective of Leslie. Together the try to find the niece and some missing prostitutes. This was a good book. I must say it has a ending surprised me. This book is listed as a Harrison Investigation book but really I don't know why. Yes Adam and Nicki come to see Leslie but they really are just thrown into the story not an main focus. If you enjoy Graham books I do not think you will be disappointed with this book. If you have not read her before I think it really gives you a feel for how she writes and if you are into romantic suspense and like ghosts you will become a fan.
