Book Description

Publication Date: February 2, 2003

What makes one police detective extraordinary, solving the most perplexing crimes while another is mediocre? The authors of the elecrifying new mystery/thriller "Fireworks" say it is in the hunches...the incredible intuition we can all tap into.

Seasoned cop Webb Hannis teams up with his newly discovered "spirit guide" and employs the extraordinary science of synchronicity to solve his most puzzling case and stop a ruthless killer.

5.0 out of 5 stars A unique and brilliant mystery!, June 10, 2004

This review is from: Fireworks (Hardcover)

Fireworks, by Jill Wellington and Edna Mae Holm is a brilliantly written whodunnit, with an enlightened twist. I couldn't put it down!

Not only did I enjoy a thrilling murder mystery, but a sense of wonderment has stayed with me long after the mystery was solved.

This is a totally unique book!
I can hardly wait for more from these dynamic mother/daughter authors, Jill Wellington and Edna Mae Holm.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fireworks Blew My Circuits!, November 23, 2003

By 

luise volta (Stanwood, WA United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Fireworks (Hardcover)

Fireworks is a unique and wonderful adventure into the land of Murder Mystery. Webb Hannis is a crusty detective, given to experiencing more than a little impatience. At his side, at his elbow, at the edge of his peripheral vision is his nemisis and Spirit Guide, Sam. I liked Sam. You may like Sam but Webb does not want Sam in his life or his nose in his business. This first novel written by a remarkable mother/daughter team offers a "sit-on-the-edge-of-your-chair" plot that doesn't unravel until the last pages. Woven intricately through it, is another dimension; one I found worth taking a look at. We view a crumbling dynasty along with a very interesting look into the complexities of modern pyrotechnics. Fireworks is a read you won't want to put down, and it may blow your circuits, too!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Book, April 18, 2003

By 

"peppermintgirl03" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Fireworks (Hardcover)

This is a clever mystery! It has a great message that taps into everyones life. Everyone should read it because then you will know what all those things that happened to you that you couldnt explain. Like if you are trying to find someone. And like that he is right there. You will learn about this topic of synchronicity. Its a very fast paced book that has a Detriot cop named Webb Hannis. With a fun loving spirt guide named Samuel. Webb begins the book not knowing about Samuel. Then Webb, gets a head injury and he is able to see Samuel. Just like you, you probaly wont belive in Synchronicity at the start but by the end of this book you will be well aware of it and undersand those times that you couldnt explain what happened!! You should pick this NOW! Its a great book!
