Whoo hoo!! The last book in the Harbor Pointe Series hits the streets today! I am so excited to share Harmony Kent’s contribution to this series!
BLURB:
When guilt-ridden Mia checks in to a suicide hotel, but can’t go through with the final act, vengeful ghosts gather to torment her.
Set in the near future, the post-war world is in turmoil.
Mia Hawthorne suffers an emotional breakdown, following the death of her wife, and loses everything to a corrupt government.
In an ironic twist of fate, the government suicide department, The Last Sanctuary, allocates a desperate and destitute Mia to the very hotel and family heirloom which she has so recently lost.
On her first day at the Lighthouse Inn, beset with painful memories, doubts, and questions, Mia finds herself coming face to face with angry ghosts, who gather to goad and torment her.
Lost and alone, can Mia find enough strength and purpose to avoid her final, frightful fate?
MY REVIEW:
Wow! What a story! This author has pulled out all the stops on this one.
Set in the near future, soulless AI have overtaken the world, leaving humans as dispensable commodities. Sadly, that may not be far from the truth.
Mia’s petition to the government for assisted suicide is answered with a room provided at the Harbor Pointe Inn she used to own. She’s lost everything—Her life partner, the inn, the will to live.
This excerpt from the story says it all: What did the government employed manager think of the Lighthouse Inn’s old owner coming here to end her life? For that matter, what did Mia herself think?
The author delves deep into the human psyche as we follow Mia through the days leading up to the moment she will end it all. There are more than a few surprises along the way as ghosts from days gone by visit Mia. Secrets are uncovered that change everything.
When a puppy ends up in Mia’s care, I was hopeful it might be why Mia wants to keep living. That adds another dimension to the story. Who doesn’t love a puppy?
I enjoyed all the characters in this story. Many of them had been Mia’s employees and some of them friends. Some not so much. This ghostly tale has so many delicious layers that it reminded me of eating a delightful cake, only to find all sorts of hidden surprises inside. If you love suspenseful stories with ghostly visitations, you are sure to love this one. I highly recommend it!
And that’s a wrap! If you missed any of the books in this fantastic series, here’s the Link:
