Great

Was a little sad and worried about it being a story taking place earlier in the series. Sometimes it's hard to get your brain into that spot, when you've moved forward in time. The story was well written and the reminder at the beginning definitely helped. It was interesting and entertaining and reminded me how much I miss Mary and the crew. This was a nice addition and I definitely didn't feel lost. Of course I hope we see more about Mary soon. Only noticed a couple bitty typos. No graphic...

Good story.

As usual Terri Reid doesn’t disappoint. I flew through the series years ago seems like a long, long time. Couldn’t remember the name of the series or any of the books, but a few minutes of searching I found it, found this new book, and now I’ve read this new book. It is good, fits right in with the rest of the stories. I had forgotten how easily you slip right into being there with the peopIe. I think I need to re-read the series. I think Terri needs to write more stories in this series. I want...

I just couldn't believe my eyes when this new Mary O'Reilly book popped up in my Kindle selections! Oh Terri Reid how I missed this series! Even though this was somewhat of a different style with the new series and this book set in the past it was a great read with plenty of action on every page. If you haven't had the pleasure of reading anything from Terri Reid then I would highly suggest the Mary O'Reilly series! Work your way through all of the books then come back and read this one! I...

I’ve read every Mary O’Reilly book and have enjoyed them all. This book takes place at a time when Mary was in a coma. She was in a state between life and death, needing to help someone receive justice. Once her task was done, Mary had to decide to wake from the coma or choose to go into the light. Favorite characters are in this book to round out this wonderful story. ) One person found this helpful
