I always like a good ghost story, and this one was intriguing. Its the first book I have read of her's, based on reviews on here, (thanks, Hermetic!) and I'll be looking for more.

Now into, "Verses of the Dead," by Preston and Child. First book pairing up Pendergast and Coldmoon in cases of women getting their hearts cut out in Florida.
