The Hidden Legacy by Christine Rees
4.0
**Was given a free e-copy in exchange for an honest review**
Rating: 3.5/5
The premise of this book is so intriguing, to say the least, Faye has the ability to see someone the moment of their death and she ends up seeing a friend murdered, now she has to choose to tell her and help solve the mystery or not. I'm not sure why, but every time I see a premise such as this I think of the show Dead Like Me, anyone? Anyway! This story kept me on my toes from the opening scene, which was a rollercoaster. Overall, I loved the characters, they were dynamic and felt wholly fleshed out, and enjoyed the pace of the novel. But I would say that there were moments when characters jumped to crazy conclusions with very little information to back up their claims, which really threw me off while reading because it was unrealistic and pushed me out of the world. Otherwise, I think that this will shape up to be an amazing series and I am excited to see what's in store for Faye.
