I have been reading a lot of mysteries lately and I liked the juxtaposition Yovanoff creates between Hannah and Lillian (who couldn't be more different). It would be easy, on first glance, to write Lillian off as a traditional mean girl (bullying others, always having to cut other people down, using back-handed compliments), but Yovanoff doesn't let Lillian fall into that trope. Although Lillian might be all those things, she is also strong, she speaks her mind, and she stands up for herself. When Hannah needs these traits the most, she borrows them from Lillian, showing how not everyone (or every personality trait) is wholly good or wholly bad. With rich, complex characters, and a great plot, this book will satisfy paranormal and mystery fans alike.
