A Visitation of Angels by Carolyn Haines is a magically told story that kept me guessing.
This adventure takes our supernatural investigators to Mission, Alabama. It's 1920, and the 19th Amendment has been ratified, but in Mission, there is nothing equal about anything. The man who owns the town rules the town and everyone in it. It's like a sinister cult. Yet, there seems to be more going on than just prejudice and control. Once Raissa and Reginald get to Mission, they realize just how bad it is, and even though they both know how dangerous it is there, they want to help the people out.
Reginald is in as much danger as Raissa. If the townsfolk finds out about him, they will hang him and the women he is trying to protect. I think that Reginald feels what is around, but he can't pinpoint exactly what it is since he has never been up against anything like it. But that doesn't stop him from doing the needed research and having a plan to get out safely. I think he goes above and beyond to help the people of Mission even though they aren't friendly to outsiders. He is coming into himself. The more we get to know him, the more I like him.
Raissa is again the focus of the evil entity. The work she and Reginald are doing is causing people to take notice. She makes some terrible errors in this installment, but I think she has learned a valuable lesson. I find her even stronger than before. She truly has this unique gift and a heart of gold.
Elizabeth Maslow calls Pluto's Snitch to Mission to help save a man from being sentenced to death for a crime he didn't commit. Although, her actions could get her and her child killed. Raissa and Reginald go to Mission but finding a solution isn't going to be easy. In fact, it will be dangerous. No one involved may make it out of Mission alive. Who is Gabriel, and how is he involved in all of this? That is just one of the many questions going through their minds.
Wow, Ms. Haines had me seriously thinking about this one; even with the title, I had a hard time. I didn't figure it out entirely until Raissa did. My rating for A Visitation of Angels by Carolyn Haines is five stars. I highly recommend this book and the series. It has a beautiful blend of history, mystery, paranormal, relationships, and setting.
I am looking forward to the next book in the series.
Can Raissa and Reginald figure out who killed Ruth before they are hanging from the gallows?
