Play Dead is a fast-paced, thrill-filled read that will keep you turning pages faster than your brain can keep up. The characters are both chilling and real. I became fascinated with the reality of the protagonists and how quickly I sympathized with their plights, both career and personal.

The twists, which are so important to this genre, are well-measured and believable. The story is strong, the themes developed. Overall, the novel appears seamless.

Strong with story and character, Play Dead is never a dull read. I will certainly be lining my shelves with more from Anne Frasier.

This is a good book if you're into voodoo, which I happen to find interesting. It actually ended up helping me with a project in school and I would highly recommend it because not only does it have some really cool ideas in it but it also is a very fun read. I found that I'm more into mysteries now because of this book, my interest in New Orleans/Louisianna is also peaked even more. Very good book!

Once you pick it up you have to finish it! Lots of voodoo in Savanah with a love story intertwined. A quick read with a soupcon of terror and chills thrown in.
