Customer Reviews

Divine connection

Great plot, super characters, and prose that seemed to come from heaven itself in places. My only complaint was the novel's length. I hope subsequent installations of the series have more pages to turn. Bravo to Ms. Hilger for a job well done.

Transforming

This book was such a GREAT read. Ms. Hilger's portrait of Sr. Abigail as a fiesty but tender, spiritually adept but humorous and real nun made her come to life--I hated to say goodbye when I ended the book and I hope the word series on the cover means at least a DOZEN more!! I also enjoyed the story within a story. Ms. Hilger took the time to present her readers with not only good entertainment, but something to think about as well. Evil is chosen and He (Jesus) truly is everfaithful.

Cliff-hanging

I loved this book completely and absolutely. From Sister Abigail and the nun with the orthopedic shoes to the story within a story Ms. Hilger used to weave this incredible tale. I couldn't put it down and for ONCE I WASN'T DISAPPOINTED over how a mystery ended. Read it and meet a wonderful friend in Sister Abigail.

Spellbinding

I purchased this book for my wife, then didn't see her for hours. Every time I tried to get her attention she wouldn't put the book down. Later, I opened the book and met Sister Abigail and the others at Tranquil Garden. I couldn't put it down either. The best first novel we have seen in many years.

Sister Abigail Rocks

I found the book easy reading and most enjoyable! I could easily relate with the characters, which I felt to be very real. The plot flowed along nicely making one eager for the next chapter. There were points of laughter and points that made me cry. I can't wait for the sequel!
