Why read it?
2 authors picked Counting Crows as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The setting was unusual. The book is set in the moors of England. While used a lot for mysteries, I'd not seen it used for stories of the supernatural. There was also a fun juxtaposition between the wet forests where the main character grew up and the dry desserts of Afghanistan where the now ex-soldier lost not only his unit, but picked up an unwanted spiritual hitchhiker as well.
Its title first attracted me and as I started to read I was hooked! I loved the premise; the touch of the supernatural and the characters are very well drawn; relatable with their human frailties, and dramatically varied characters. I could feel their emotions as if I was there.
The action is cinematic. The whole thing played in my head like a film. It was so plausible. The use of nature in the piece, especially the crows and weather, compliments the mood brilliantly. This is the first in the series and I have read all of them.
From Elizabeth's list on thrillers and mysteries from new and great authors.
