very disappointing!! I have liked most of the Taylor Jackson series but this one is so slow and just boring, even by half way it was just more of a romance than anything, I don't want a history of Scotland or London or anything else--I want a good mystery/thriller and this did not fit the bill

I have enjoyed most of J.T. Ellison's books but this one sort of made me feel like something was missing! Still an okay story......just not one of the best I have read!

By far the best, fastests paced and most thrilling book, however from a completely different perspective. I could not turn the pages fast enough. I hope there are more books coming, there were unanswered questions left that is for sure.

While not as bloody as her previous books, this one is pretty good. You will get a history lesson of Scotland in this book. The last portion of the book intensifies and ends the book well.

It took me a while to get into the book. At about 2/3 of the way it improved greatly.
#7 in series. Taylor is barely recovering from her gunshot to the head & frozen vocal cords and is now out of the hospital and home. Suffering PTSD and betrayal from Baldwin she decides to take Highsmythe up on his offer to stay in his castle to recover. Making the trip to Scotland, Taylor holes up in the castle and slowly starts losing her mind. Is it pills, alcohol, or Highsmythe? Starting therapy with a new Dr. friend of Highsmythes she starts making breakthroughs but something isn't right. Closed off from everyone she loves, Taylor slowly starts a descent into madness. But us she being helped along the way by power of suggestion, really seeing ghosts, or is it all in her head? Fast paced & page turner to get to the answers

After reading the first six in the Taylor Jackson series, did NOT expect this bomb. It took 282 pages before the story developed. The first 282 pages were spent w/characters wringing their kleenex like some torn-bodice romance. And then when the story did develop, the author blew thru it like a whirlwind. Very, very disappointing book. Ususally I won't give any book more than a 50-page chance to be read but since the first six in series were so good, kept expecting this to be same. Total waste of time.
Read this one at own wasted-time risk.

Wow! What a difference from J.T.'s other books! I give it a 5 star for her writing (always wonderful), but only a 2-2.5 for story line. I was really bored through the first 2/3 of the book when the writer I know seemed to kick in and come up with an Ellison ending.
Send old Memphis away and Taylor back to Nashville! This didn't keep up with Ellison's abilities. Made me feel sad.
