A DREADFUL SPLENDOR is a Gothic murder mystery that I absolutely could not put down, I fell in love with its main character immediately-- a young spiritualist who makes her living performing fake seances for the wealthy. When she gets caught in the act she is given a choice-- the gallows, or one last seance for the widower of a young heiress who died under mysterious circumstances. As the boundaries between performance and reality begin to dissolve, our spiritualist begins to wander if the ghost she is here to contact....might actually exist? This book provides some real scares but also possesses a warm and witty humor, a fine line that Myers walks effortlessly. So well done, and so much fun.
