Loved this book! 
 Set in Charleston, Carolina, it has the feel of a gothic murder mystery and I lapped it up. There were so many questions at the end of the book that I had to immediately buy the sequel, and I'll be starting right away in the hope I get some answers. 
 One small complaint I have, and this is probably down to my complete lack of interest in romance novels, I felt the author didn't need to keep hitting us over the head with how attracted Amelia was to Devlin. I found myself rolling my eyes a little at the repeated descriptions of his dark, brooding charisma. But this is a small part of the overall story, and there was so much mystery about Devlin that I was prepared to cut the author some slack. 
 When I finished, I had about fifty questions about Amelia, her parents, Devlin, the ghosts and Charleston's high society. I won't list them as they'd probably be spoilerific, but I was left feeling tantalised and desperate to know more. 
 I'm off to start on the sequel, The Kingdom.
