marjolaine_lafreniere 's review for:

Valley of Silence by Nora Roberts
3.0

The rating holds, mostly. I'm still ticked off about the identity of the old man /framing device, and I'm not feeling the romantic connection between the leads as I did the first time around, so that's a downer.

On the other hand, the magical powers of the lead female are less annoying when one realizes that they are just an excuse for her to talk to people who might otherwise be shuffled out of the story.
