Review Detail

Reader reviewed by Kayla (Midnight Twilight)

Set in an alternate modern day Scotland this story tells of a student, Sophie Hunter is presented with a mystery about an explosionist, a medium, and a murderer. Sophie's parents died and now she's living with her Great-Aunt Tabitha, and at her all girls boarding school. Great-Aunt Tabitha often has mediums over to help her contact the dead, but one of the mediums gives Sophie a message. But before Sophie can figure out what the message meant the medium is killed. And hundreds of others are being killed in bombs all over Scotland and no one seems to know who's behind them.

I loved this book. I've read books about the past, present and, future (or at least how people think the future will turn out), but i've never before read a book about the present, in another country, if history had been changed. I've never read anything like this book before, and that's important to me in a book. Now for the bad parts, some of the parts of the book were kind of hard to believe, and a little confusing to understand, but everything came together and turned into an amazing supernatural/war/everything else, story.
