3.5 This one was just a bit too over the top for me. I have struggled throughout the series with Taylor's strange attraction to Memphis when she has a lock on the very attractive Baldwin. I did enjoy her trauma and recovery phase and the whole cast of characters at the castle in Scotland. Ellison does a nice job of stretching her skills beyond the Nashville borders. She also tried more of a psychological thriller approach this time instead of the usual whodunit. Too bad about the Hollywood /movie of the week ending. From my blogJT Ellison is a great author when writing about serial killers. This is book 7, the end story of the series. I thoroughly enjoyed So Close the Hand of Death and feel like these 2 read together complete a great story. I found this one to be very different from what I expect of JT, no serial killer involvement, only the after affects of almost dying from the hands of one. Initially I felt the book was all over the place, was it a mystery, romance or ghost story. I find many story lines are intertwined and create the perfect puzzle but this one felt odd to me. Then, we get the heart pounding race to the end, total edge of your seat greatness. The book went from an almost 3 to immediate 4 star for me, a great Psychological Suspense read. JT may have went for playing with the readers mind with not allowing us to know where it was going but I have to say I don't think it was executed well but it was greatly pulled together at the end. Sam was dealing with Post-traumatic stress disorder and the way the counselors assisted her was extremely interesting and set the scene in many ways. I did enjoy not knowing what was reality or possible hallucinations. Quotes I enjoyedAt least Sam was getting a chance to heal; her wounds were hidden, on the inside. Taylor had to parade around town with her scars, and without her voice.This was what she wanted, right? For him to apologize. To offer to make things right. They were better as a team. Together they could conquer anything. But apart, they were two lonely icebergs, drifting silently toward a certain doom.She felt the nimble touch again, more familiar this time, then it stopped and she was able to breathe and then sit up. She turned on the light, hands at her throat, gasping for air. Her heart was pounding out of control.. What in the hell had just happened?
What do You think about Där Alla De Döda Vilar (2013)?
Abit different to the others in the series but still gripping!!
