The Dead Whisper On by TL Hines
This book has been sitting in my TBR (to be read) pile for months. I’m not sure why I didn’t pick it up sooner, probably because the CFBA tour came and went, and I did my obligatory post, unable to post a real review because of being a slow reader. I heard good things about…
