Waiting for that very first review from the press must be stressful, especially for a debut novelist like Wendy Webb.
But if this Library Journal review, the first for the upcoming HALCYON CRANE, is any indication of what's to come, Wendy's got nothing to fear (expect maybe that creepy girl from Holt's spectacular cover art, or the many chills 'n thrills from Wendy's imagination lying in wait within the book's covers . . .)
An engaging modern gothic tale with a strong female protagonist and well-done suspense. Fans of Mary Higgins Clark and Barbara Michaels and readers who like supernatural elements in their fiction will enjoy this debut.”—Library Journal
THE TALE OF HALCYON CRANE has it all . . a complex, atmospheric tale that will remind you of why you first loved reading.” --Patry Francis, author of THE LIAR'S DIARY
“The perfect cozy read.”—Mary Sharratt, author of The Vanishing Point and Daughters of the Witching Hill
