Wonderful reading - until the end

I would love to give this book 5 stars. It was very well written and made me think. No doubt, this is her best book so far. However, this book has the same problem her last two - she builds up the plot, and then wraps everything up too neat and pat. There is no real climax; Maddison just waves her arms and the book stops. (The scientist in me also wonders how anyone could prove what they say is in the box is really what is in the box, but that is a side issue.)

thank heavens for a good myster!

Want to read a literate, fun adventure? This is it! I've already read the first two books in this series and I'm almost impatient for the next one. Guess I'll have to wait another year. This book was very well written and the characters I got to know in earlier books, are getting better and better. It also makes me think about life and love and magic and spiritual stuff while I'm trying to figure out the mystery. What a ride! Thank you, thank you. Keep writing!

Another OUTSTANDING mystery in the series. Love it!

I keep thinking they can't get better. But the author has taken the magic and the mystery to the next level. I've gotten extremely attached to these characters, but even more to the literate writing, the realistic dialogue, the vivid settings, and most of all, that sort of spooky, spine-tingling, "woo-woo" stuff that Maddison seems to know an awful lot about. Who would have believed a mystery author could make readers want to know even more about angels and reincarnation and yes, even about God? Wow! So when's the next one?
