Very good!

highly recommend

I really enjoyed this book. Once I started reading it I did not want to put it down.

Yikes!

I've enjoyed several of Ms Robards books before. Not this one. It scared me from page 4! Be warned.

not one of my favs, but its good

This book was confusing at first but you'll get the hang of it. It has an equal amount of mystery and love. You should read it.

Miz. Robards does it again!

This is the third book of hers that I have read and just as usual I love it! When the mystery combines with the romance it is all the better. I'm only in my young teens but I love it none the less.

Worth reading

this book was worth reading but i thought that the ending could have been better. it needed more of an explination for all that had happened. but otherwise it was a good book and worth reading

Greatly Recommended

I think that the author of this book did a great job of displaying the horror of not remembering what happen to Sara's mother. Sara is a single mother who ran away with her ex-husband and is trying to find acceptence with her old-step-great grandfather, Big John. When she shows up unexpectedly with her eight year-old daughter Oliva, things take an unexpected twist with her cousin, Seth. Things get romanticly intimite. To me a little to much information in the sex department but other then that it is a great and highly recommended.

A disjointed novel

This novel could have been so good if the author stuck with the relationship between the two main characters and their little girls. She creates four appealing people and then sticks in a totally unnecessary and even silly seriel murderer subplot. Olivia returns home to Louisiana with her little daughter after nine years absence at the request of a beloved aunt. She and her step-cousin begin a stormy (and charming and nicely adult) relationship which includes both their little girls. If Robards had just concentrated on this plot line she would have produced an insightful novel about family dynamics. Instead, she wanders off into pseudosouthern gothic complete with mysterious suicides, dank family tombs, mummies, ghostly voices etc. She introduces characters, (grandfather, nasty aunt, exboyfriend)and then drops them almost immediately. The seriel killer could have wondered in from another novel entirely. And the ending is downright silly. I can't imagine anyone living happily ever after (as portrayed in the final paragraph) without years and years of therapy considereing what happened only a few pages earlier! A book like this could have been so good because this is a talented writer. Where was her editor!

Satisfied!

Ms. Robards delivers another well-written romantic suspense. Also, some parts in the story were quite touching: the dying grandmother and Seth's sympathy toward Sara for her weight being teased by the other girls. The ending was shocking. It's definitely a worthy read.

Difficult to Finish Without Hurling!

The only surprise regarding this epic is that someone actually chose to publish it. It's all completely predictable, and at the same time, irrational!

Are we reading different books?

Ms. Robards' latest is definitely no winner here. The identity of the murderer becomes obvious quite early on in this tale and the main characters, while likable, are as predictible as the story line. Four and five star ratings are inconceivable to me. What does a true yarn with genuine suspense and unpredictible plot development like a DeMille get from this audience. The only surprise here is that anyone was surprised by any part of Ghost Moon.

Can't go wrong with Karen Robards

I have read all of Karen Robards books. I am always very happy to hear of a new book by her. Although still a good book to read, Ghost Moon was not one of my favorites when judging only by her other books.

Ghost Moon is a page turner

This is a book, that I read in one sitting. I could not put it down. the author is getting better everytime she writes. I have been reading her for a long time and am definetly enjoying her more.

Ghost Moon is great!

I am a big fan of Karen Robards' novels, and I think this is one of her best yet. The suspense was spine-tingling, the romance was hot, and the sub-plots - the chubby little girl and the dying grandmother - tugged at my heartstrings. Another great romantic suspense by Karen Robards!
