Ghost of Lies
by Alice Winters
Wow, just wow!
Another masterpiece from this author combining mystery, action, ghosts and romance within an original plot that had me hooked from the first page.
The dialogue between Hiro and his ghost besties is hilarious and only gets funnier when grumpy Maddox hits the scene unaware of Hiro’s ability. Maddox is very sceptical of Hiro and his “imaginary friends” but his opinion slowly changes as they investigate the mystery together. Then their antics, banter and sarcasm provides some more laugh out loud moments.
The mystery element has a real sense of menace about it and left me embarrassed every time I was convinced I’d picked the villain of the piece. I was way off target! The romance element is a low angst slow burn which is focused more on the characters than an abundance of steamy times. Combine these two elements with perfect pacing, a seamless plot and interesting side characters and you are left with an amazing first instalment of this new series.
There are more books planned for Hiro and Maddox and I can’t wait to see where the author takes them next.
