   Aucun Actuellement, il n'y a pas de discussions au sujet de ce livre.  selsha | Mar 29, 2024 |   Simone St. James' books are always a pleasure to read. There is mystery, paranormal phenomena, great characters and a great story. When in doubt, try Simone St. James. (  ) EdGoldberg | Sep 17, 2023 | ) JEatHHP | Aug 23, 2022 | What attracts me to St. James's books is that she combines a couple of genres including historical fiction and mystery and throws in paranormal activities to boot. Although this current read includes all of these, the paranormal aspects played a backstage to the other genres. The novel's protagonist, Ellie Winter, has assumed her mother's business as a psychic in post-WW1 London. Her particular psychic ability is psychometry, which is an extrasensory perception stimulated by the touch of physical objects. People pay her to find lost objects. When a medium, Gloria Sutter, is murdered, her brother honors a written message she left behind to have Ellie find her. I had high hopes like her other books that I have read, but, in this case, it was only okay. (  ) John_Warner | Feb 26, 2021 | ) KateHonig | Dec 3, 2020 | aucune critique | ajouter une critique

This book was incredibly captivating! Every single character was brilliantly developed. I was hooked throughout the whole story.
James and Ellie were adorable together! Their ending was just perfect, and I especially loved the addition of the pup! Gloria was so well-written; she rubbed me the wrong way from the start.
The ending surprised me and I didn't love it because it wasn't a "did you figure it out yet" surprise - it was more, let me tell you who it is! Overall, the book was so well-written, intriguing, and I absolutely enjoyed it! (
