Lost Among the Living by Simone St. James
3.0
3.5 stars
This is an older book from Simone St. James- and it shows. It lacks some of the polish and depth that her more recent books have.
I still thought that Ms. St. James' blend of mystery, ghost story, and romance worked well. And this novel is set after WWI- which is a time period that the author excels at portraying. But not all of the characters felt fully rounded out and real. Additionally, the story wasn't quite as satisfying as some of her books. It was a good novel and I'm glad that I read it, but it wasn't great and Simone St. James is quite capable of great books.
