Restless Shadows

He’s back!

That was the first thought that crossed Cindy Biggs’ mind when she heard of the brutal triple-murder in her hometown of Coleman. Yes, the awful crime was nearly identical to the one performed during her hard-scrabble childhood at the time of the Great Depression. And, strangely enough, it had taken place in the same place...the ruins of the old tobacco barn near the edge of Green Creek.

But this was 2014, not 1936. Cindy was no longer an innocent nine-year-old child, but an elderly woman who used her gift of second sight to assist the police every now and then. And the man who been mostly responsible for that mass killing in ’36, Bully Hanson, had been dead and in the grave for 77 long years.

Still, she could not shake the overpowering feeling that he was involved in the massacre of three people and that the 13-year-old boy suspected of committing the murders was completely innocent. The only way she could be certain that her suspicions were more due to intuition than senility was to return to Bedloe County. And, with the help of her granddaughter Beth, revisit the most devastating period of her life...and hope that, somehow, some way, the most evil man she had ever known had not slipped the bonds of death and come back to wreak havoc once again.

Storyline was really good.

This was a good book that could have been a really good book. Although it was predictable, I enjoyed following along with the characters on their journey to solve the murders. The one thing that almost made me stop listening was the authors repeated reference to one of the main characters, Cindy, as 'the old woman' and her granddaughter, Beth, as ' the red-haired woman'. It was not just once or twice, it was repeated over and over and over, ad nauseum, and it was entirely unnecessary. Repetition is not an author's friend. That being said, I did enjoy the story and the narrator did a fine job.

One of the best stories!!!

I highly recommend this and Ronald Kelly's Hindsight! What a great story! Full of mystery, addictive characters and so much more! The narrator, Jennifer Nittoso is amazing 👏 She brought the story and characters to life. Ronald Kelly is now my favorite author. I've almost listened to all his brilliant works. BRAVO! 👏

Great character driven story

Relive a moment in time with the touch of a hand. An ability that gives foreknowledge and responsibility. Would you take it if that meant you could help other? Would you take it if that meant you could be put in danger?
