A review by superwendy
Lost Among the Living by Simone St. James
4.0
I tore through all of St. James' backlist in 2016 and this was the last one I got to - so it kind of suffered a bit in comparison to my personal favorites (Silence for the Dead and The Other Side of Midnight). That said, it's not like this was horrible - hello, I'm giving it 4 stars. Mostly I felt like the mystery elements were telegraphed a bit early and I saw those coming a mile away. But! The atmosphere here is fantastic (as it is in all of St. James' books) and I thought the way the author wrote the relationship between the heroine and her employer/aunt-in-law was really fantastic. So while not a favorite of mine, personally, it's not like I went wrong here. In fact I wish I could go back and rediscover St. James all over again for the very first time.
