Like historical fiction with a twist? No, not twisTED, just a twist. The supernatural titles seem to be getting a lot of play and reader interest…we all want to be mystified, I think. This storyline involves
Calder, a Fetch – death escort- who is the first of his kind to step from Heaven back to Earth and the first to fall in love with a mortal. His love overwhelms his task and as a result of his interference in the ‘real’ world, the worlds of mortals and spirits are opened to each other in a remarkable and dangerous way. Set during the Russian Revolution, the story is both historical and other worldly. Laura Whitcom previously wrote A Certain Slant of Light, also using the conversation between ‘worlds’ as a story anchor. Not a perfectly written book but very readable. I love the Rasputin inclusion and the mystery of such powerful characters in history’s major events. Good read. Try it. Probably more of interest to girl readers than guys, but still recommend it for either.
