Death on Dickens Island
Author: Allison Brook
I have Allison Brook's Haunted Library series on my bookshelves and coming up next in my series TBR list! I read the first book years ago, and then lost track of the series. So happy to be soon picking back up again and reading her books!
When I saw this first book in a new series pop up for review, I had to grab a early copy. I remember enjoying her characters and writing style so had to jump on this new series from the start.
The basics -- Della Dickens is in her thirties, newly divorced and trying to start over again. She comes home to Dickens Island where she grew up to help with the family business and heal some family rifts. When her Uncle and Aunt end up suspects in a murder investigation, Della finds herself in the middle of secrets, lies and danger.
I loved the setting, the characters and the suspense. The Dickens family has more than a little family drama going on and that aspect really heightened the suspense. I liked the ghostly/supernatural edge as well. I love the cover art!
Great start to a new series, and I will definitely be reading more! Can't wait for the next book!
**I voluntarily read a review copy of this book from Crooked Lane Books. All opinions expressed are entirely my own.**
