A magic sprinkled murder mystery. Shea writes a story as if it were poetry, beautiful words interwoven together.

However, like most beautiful things, if they lack a certain level of depth, they are often hard to fall in love with. I liked this story, I enjoyed it, the latter quarter of the book was by far the best part, but I did not love this story.

It has some haunting and deep quotes hidden within it's pages, which I adored. But the story as a whole didn't make me fall in love, I needed a little more from Nora, to truly want to follow her. Shea's poetic writing is what kept me reading, I wanted the soulful strings of words that made this tapestry glimmer, rather than the tapestry itself.
