HEX MARKS THE SPOT
by Madelyn Alt


RT Rating:
Category: MYSTERY
Publisher: Berkley Prime Crime
Published: December 2007
Type: Mystery (Amateur Sleuth, Series, Paranormal)

Alt's latest combines a healthy dose of sleuthing with a touch of the paranormal. A winning plot and an evil undercurrent make this an enthralling mystery.

Summary: Empath Maggie O'Neill works at an antique store in rural Indiana. When a handsome Amish man is murdered, she discovers a hexing symbol near the body. The small community seems to attract danger, especially the Amish, who have been victimized by unknown assailants.

As Maggie senses the dark energy surrounding her, she feels an attraction to her friend Marcus, a dangerous man, the opposite of her on-again/off-again cop boyfriend, Tom. But Maggie cannot stop thinking about the dead man, who had secrets that threatened the solidity of his marriage. Who could have wanted him dead? (Berkley Prime Crime, Dec., 256 pp., $6.99)
