Description
While leading a weeklong photography workshop on picturesque Mykonos, instructor Dana Fox is entranced by the brilliant light of the Greek island, as well as by the dark beauty, Cybele Karabélias, a local policewoman. But her idyllic sojourn takes an ominous turn when a series of gruesome murders rock the town. Heedless of the possible dangers surrounding her, Dana continues to document the isle in sunlit photographs, unaware of the killer edging closer, hungry for closure and the evidence she unknowingly possesses.

At first I wasn't sure if this story was going to be for me... but then as I started to read it more I was pleasantly surprised! I think this is one that is definitely going to be a big hitter as soon as it hits the shelves. Go for it and read!
Paula, E, Reviewer
The setting of The Ungodly Hour by Laury A. Egan is pleasant, and the descriptions are done well to make the reader feel a part of the action and scenery.
The book comes with a content warning regarding some of the subject matter, such as violence and homophobia.
I liked the main character, Dana, and the mystery was pretty solid. I did find myself skimming some of the pages during the middle of the book, but overall the story held my interest in the way the author weaved the setting, the characters, and the intense subject and drama of the story.
I would give this book a solid 3.75 out of 5.
