I really enjoyed this book. It took awhile to get into it, but once the murder case began, it was very good and enthralling. My favorite character was Minerva, the witch doctor... she was a character I had never really encountered before in any of the books I've read, so she was quite refreshing. I liked how it took place in Savannah - a good, southern, down-to-Earth place, but with a lot of dark secrets behind it. It was a very interesting plot and I would definitely recommend this to people.
