I'm not going to try a summarize the story, there's a perfectly good one already provided. But, I will say Erin Cole wrote the BEST Mystery I've read in a long time!
My favorite thing though was the way she made all the creepy eerie events reach right out of the book to scare the pants off me in my own home. I'm always marveled at an author who came make the simplest things (like oh a window that keeps opening) seem like the most terrifying thing ever. Erin brilliantly blended a great mystery with seemingly normal events, intertwined elements of the paranormal, to create a story so life-like that it demands your full attention! The characters and their world were so beautifully described that I was able to picture everything without feeling bombarded by information (a big pet peeve of mine).
I normally follow book series that are mostly Paranormal Romance or Urban Fantasy, but Grave Echoes gave me a new genre to love. I can't wait for the next Kate Waters Mystery.
