The Fallen

"I enjoyed reading Shadow Notes for a whole bunch of reasons, one of which is that it's a great mystery novel. It's an exciting story with some of my favorite elements: a complicated mother/daughter relationship, and a satisfyingly troubled and complex main character who returns to her home after a long time away and tries to fit back in. It's such a fun reada very satisfying mystery, and it offers the promise of another book in the series." Rebecca Hussey, Of Books & Bicycles review blog
"No relationship can remain the same after it's touched by murder. In The Fallen , Laurel S. Peterson uses solving a cop's murder to explore the many meanings of home and family and keeps you guessing until the end..." James M. Jackson, author of the Seamus McCree series
"Combines full-speed-ahead action with captivating characters and authentic dialogue to tell the tale of a modern-day murder mystery complete with gangs, drive-by shootings, a large hurricane, an almost ex-husband, and even some homestyle southern cooking." Lynne Heinzmann, author of Frozen Voices and The Rose Island Lighthouse Series
"A vivid exploration of intersecting worlds: rich and poor, black and white, North and South, murder and landscape architecture. a bit of romance, some psychic phenomena, and a mystery that kept me guessing. Conan Doyle would be jealous." Paull Goodchild, author of The Case of the Pale Ale
