I enjoyed this book throughly. Filled with suspense, and exciting characters. If you like magic, riviting mystery, this book is for you.

The book is a blend of occult mystery and suspense and it incorporates a rich melange of magickal ingredients - from amulets, past lives and elemental beings to shape shifting and modern magickal ritual--to show the subtle ways psychic phenomena can intrude into anyone's life and influence even the most "rational" of people.

I enjoyed this book very much. Couldn't put it down. Loved the different characters, motivation and storyline. If you like magic and suspense, this book is for you.

Rian McGuire owns a New Age book shop. One day a disturbing man leaves an old book in her shop, and when he begins to invade her dreams she starts on a bizarre journey into the arcane. Her friends and family gather psychic forces while Rian finally discovers the Rag Bone Man's identity. But will she able to harness her own magickal power before the final confrontation?

This book has a good plot, full of intelligent and well-researched occult references. The mystery itself keeps you on your toes. However, some choppy sentences, cliches, and weak dialogue here and there detract from the overall enjoyment of the book. Characterization is also weak. Despite all this, the book is still worth a read.
