Ghost Moon (Bone Island Trilogy) [Mass Market Paperback]


I've finished "Ghost Moon" the 3rd book in her Bone Island Trilogy" by Heather Graham.

Product Description

Reclusive collector Cutter Merlin is seldom seen in Key West — lately, not at all. Officer Liam Beckett visits Merlin's curious house and discovers the gentleman in his study. In his death grip: a volume of occult lore and a reliquary. His eyes are wide with fright, his mouth a horrified rictus where spiders now dwell.

Kelsey Donovan returns to the old house to catalog her estranged grandfather's collection of artifacts and antiquities, vowing to see his treasures divested properly. But she cannot ignore the sense that she's being watched, the reports of malevolent black figures, the pervasive smell of death.

Is the Merlin house haunted, even cursed? Liam knows well that some ghost stories are true and he swears to protect Kelsey. But there are forces at work for whom one more life is a pittance to pay for their deepest desire ….

My Review:
 
Storyline:  Cutter Merlin is seldom seen so Liam Beckett goes to visit him!  He finds him in his study with an occult book and reliquary clutched in his hand with his eyes wide open and a mouth open in horrified terror where spider lurk now!  He discovers it's not death by old age but murder!  Kelsey returns home after a very long time not since her mother's accidental death!  She comes back to make sure his treasures are properly shared and to catalogue his artifacts!  She also needs to find out why her grandfather was killed and what he was trying to tell her!

Characters:   I really liked Liam because he has always been in love with Kelsey but never really knew it! He wants to protect her for her own good!  When they were young he would tease her all the time.  Kelsey makes an interesting heroine because she's quite stubborn and won't let Liam boss her around!

Romance:  It would have been inevitable for them Kelsey and Liam to become lovers!  If she didn't leave the island they would have gotten married and have kids.  She thinks they probably would have been divorced by now!  When they finally come together it's quite steamy!

Killer:  The killer is quite insane and had no remorse after killing people!  He would do whatever it would take to find what he wanted!

3/5
