Publisher's summary

Emerging from the bayou like an apparition, Donegal Plantation is known for its unsurpassed dining, captivating atmosphere, haunting legends... and now a corpse swinging from the marble angel that marks its cemetery’s most majestic vault. A corpse discovered in nearly the same situation as that of Marshall Donegal, the patriarch killed in a skirmish just before the Civil War.

Desperate for help traditional criminologists could never provide, plantation heiress Ashley Donegal turns to an elite team of paranormal investigators who blend hard forensics with rare - often inexplicable - intuition. Among the “Krewe of Hunters” is an old flame, Jake Mallory, a gifted musician with talent stretching far beyond the realm of the physical, and a few dark ghosts of his own.

The evil the team unveils has the power to shake the plantation to its very core. Jake and Ashley are forced to risk everything to unravel secrets that will not stay buried - even in death....

Good up until the end

I got this title primarily due to Luke Daniels narration, and also for the Halloween sale.

I was hoping for a good and spooky tale with the title being Heart of Evil. Unfortunately, it was more of a romantic thriller, where the only evil was that of the common man. (No spoilers, it’s obvious almost from the beginning).

It was pretty good, until the killer was revealed, caught in one chapter, then we are rushed straight into the epilogue.

I was planning to continue the series, but now I’m completely turned off from the even getting the next book.

Great ghost story, better love story!

I loved the spin-off story with Jake and Ashley. This was almost historical, with the detailed accounts of history during the Civil War with reenactments. I enjoyed the suspense and pacing. But more than all of it, I thought it was a good love story between the living and the dead.

Not usually a romance enthusiasts, but

Received the romance package as a gift. I'm usually a suspense fan, however I received the romance package as a gift and it is terrific! These Heather Graham novels are really good. I don't like romance that is essentially porn, they embarrass me. These are historical fiction, suspense and a just a bit of sizzle. Heather Graham has earned a new fan in me! Excellent author.

Light on the "supernatural"

I hopped on this one thinking the concept sounded fun. A large chunk of the beginning is spent on the characters setting up and participating in a civil war reenactment. It does eventually set up the plot but it was a bit to wade through. Once our Krewe arrives, the story devolves into a less ghost heavy episode of "Ghost Hunters" with the romance of the 2 central characters taking center stage for a lot of the story.

I was looking for a supernatural/horror/mystery and i didn't find it in this book. For those looking more for a supernatural romance, the story is well written and enjoyable - it just wasn't what I wanted.
