Critics Review
“You’ll love the not-so-innocent heroine of this delightful new series where no one and nothing is quite what it seems. Intriguing Ruby Proulx pretends to be a medium, but is she really pretending? And whom can she trust among the many new people she meets? Jessica Estevao will keep you guessing until the very last page!”—Victoria Thompson, national bestselling author of Murder in the Bowery
“Exciting and engrossing… [A] great read with a delightful heroine and a wonderful setting.”—Emily Brightwell, New York Times bestselling author of the Victorian Mysteries
“Old Orchard, Maine, at the turn of the twentieth century provides the setting for Estevao’s excellent series launch. The richness of the character backstories allows Estevao to strike a perfect balance, neither relying on a deus ex machina ending nor telegraphing the solution too early.”—Publishers Weekly
