Reviews
Good read
5By EWMJLMI just finished the last book in this series and overall I was very pleased. The mysteries were great, the romances were just enough and the characters believable and likable. There were some minor things I didn't care for, but still I would recommend the books.Of course.
1By Alana NeuronI loved the first book, was moderately annoyed at the reason the bad guy was bad in the second, but this just makes me angry. **spoiler warning** Of course, the one gay person in the entire series is described as having a sexual "preference ". And is, unsurprisingly but disappointingly, one of the bad guys. I guess I know where the author stands about people like me.Ashes and bone
4By PushpushStableJust completed the trilogy and obviously, (since I read all three), this is a indicator that there is all one looks for in a good mystery. Filled with tension, red-herrings, good leads to unravel, and a satisfying finale. I'm moving on to the author's other books knowing I won't be disappointed.Delta Crossroads Trilogy
4By SissykarenJust read the Delta Crossroads Trilogy by author Stacy Green. Tin God got me hooked and had to finish the trilogy after the finish. Set in the modern day Deep South, the past is visited through mystery and surprise who done it endings. I especially liked the fact that their was a love story amidst the suspense yet no seedy reading of erotica which is often the case after purchasing a book. Just good story telling. Although some profanity injected nothing I'd class as crude vulgarity. Something I appreciate as a reader. Great read. Well done Stacy Green.
