The Reckoning at Gossamer Pond by Jaime Jo Wright

The first book I read by Jaime Jo Wright was The House on Foster Hill and I became hooked on this author. Her first book was so good and I didn't think it could be possible that she could write a better book but she did. The Reckoning at Gossamer Pond is a stand-alone novel. It is a dual time-line mystery/suspense novel. There are mysteries happening in both timeline, the one that was 100 years ago and the present age. Both are set in the town of Gossamer Grove. There was many surprises and twists and turns in this novel. I started reading one evening and then got up the next morning early and could not put this book down until I read the last page. Both storylines kept me involved. I had to see how the two storylines were connected. In the modern time a man is found dead in his trailor with pictures of Annalise plastered all over the walls. This is enough to creep anybody out. Someone does not want Annalise to investigate and mysterious things keep happening. In the story from 100 years ago a couple of people died under unusual circumstances. Both people were connected to the Greenwood family. I loved both Libby's story and Annalise's story but I think it was the story of Annalise that interested me the most. This novel was not heavy on romance so if you are looking for a romance story this is not the book for you. There is a little but it does not play a huge part in the story.

The Reckoning at Gossamer Pond is due to be released on July 3, 2018. Thanks to Netgalley and Bethany House Publishers for providing me a digital copy of this book to read and review. The opinions are entirely my own and I was not compensated to read this book.
