Deadly Night by Heather Graham

Deadly Night (Flynn Brothers Trilogy, #1)

by Heather Graham

The Flynn brothers have inherited more than a New Orleans plantation.

They've inherited a ghostly presence… and a long-kept secret. Aidan Flynn, a private investigator and eldest of the Flynn brothers, scoffs at the haunted-house rumors–especially since Kendall Montgomery, a tarot card reader who has been living in the mansion, is the one to tell him the tale of a woman in white.

But when he finds a human bone on the grounds and another by the river, Aidan delves into the dark history of the Flynn plantation. Forced together to uncover the truth, Aidan and Kendall realize that a serial killer whose victims seem to vanish into thin air has long been at work…and that their own fates are about to be sealed forever unless they believe in the unbelievable.

Another great read by Heather Graham!

This one takes place mostly at a haunted plantation that the Flynn brother's have inherited.



Both characters where likable, though it took me awhile to warm up completely to Aidan. I still think the author should lay off the overly flowery sex scene descriptions..

"The taste of her was intoxicating, the feel of her supple flesh writhing beneath him exquisite and damning."

I'm not even sure what the heck that means?? Was she having a stroke?? Was she an evil demon?? *lol*

I also noticed a mistake, at one point in the beginning we are told Aidan's wife has been dead 5 years, then later we are told it has been 3 years, not a big deal, but if I the reader caught it, then the editor should have.

Again this author does really good mysteries with lost of twists and turns and red herrings, and I was really surprised by the unmasking of the baddie in this one!



It also had an epilogue, one year in the future which included marriage and a baby on the way I think this was the first one I have read by this author that has included one!!

Overall this was one of my favorites to date!
