Set against the historic city of San Francisco, Moyer drew me in with her easy writing style, dark descriptions and engaging characters. Delia’s Shadow is the first novel in the Delia Martin series by Jamie Lee Moyer. I love crime novels, mysteries and serial killers! Mix in supernatural elements and I am drawn to these stories like moths to a flame. And who is now aware of Delia’s existence. A killer who after thirty years is killing again. It will not be easy, as the ghost is only one of the many victims of a serial killer who was never caught. After several years in New York, Delia believes she is free…until one determined specter appears and she realizes that she must return to the City by the Bay in order to put this tortured soul to rest. Delia flees to the other side of the continent, hoping to gain some peace. Since the great quake rocked her city in 1906, Delia has been haunted by an avalanche of the dead clamoring for her help. But a dark secret colors her life, for Delia’s most loyal companions are ghosts, as she has been gifted (or some would say cursed) with an ability to peer across to the other side. It is the dawn of a new century in San Francisco and Delia Martin is a wealthy young woman whose life appears ideal. A dark, romantic fantasy set against the backdrop of San Francisco devastated by the Great Quake.
