I always enjoy a Krewe of Hunters book, and while they all have more than a few things in common, one of the things that separates them is the setting and all the historical facts that are sprinkled in about that place. The Night is Forever takes place somewhere outside of Nashville, Tennessee, and because of this rather vague location, I didn't feel like I got the usual historical tidbits I look forward to reading, but the story itself takes place on The Horse Farm, "a facility that assists patients with mental and physical recovery." Olivia Gordon works at this facility, and when her boss, a recovering addict, turns up dead with drugs in his system, she seems to be the only one who doesn't buy this story. She calls her cousin, Malachi, a member of the Krewe, who sends in Dustin Blake to investigate to see if there's anything to her suspicions.

This series of paranormal mysteries/romances doesn't disappoint and is always fun to read. I look forward to reading the next book in the series, and continue to recommend it.

4/5 stars ( )

I didn't realize that this was part of a series when I started reading it, but you don't have to read all the previous books to be able to understand what's going on. This was a relatively quick read, my only "complaint" is that the chapters are really long (on average about 25 pages each). I had previously tried reading this book years ago, but didn't really get into it, it didn't grab my attention right off the bat. However, once I got a chapter or two in, it got more interesting. The mystery was all twisty and turn-y, all the clues kept just going around in circles, so I never really had any idea who the culprit was. Character development was decent, not a ton of backstory was needed and it wasn't necessary to make the characters overly complicated. There was enough development of the main characters to give you an idea of who they were and a desire for them to figure out what was happening. The plot was interesting, and moved along well. The details of the more important things was clear and not overly done.

All in all, I would recommend this book if you like a cozy mystery to read, something that won't keep you up at night but will still make you think and try to figure out whodunit. If you also like stories about ghosts or more "supernatural" types of stories, that would be a bonus for you. ( )

I have enjoyed this one the best so far. I thought for sure I knew who the killer was but was totally wrong. I look forward to reading more Heather Graham, especially the Krewe books. ( )

The story takes place in present day Tennessee, but is filled with Civil War History and folk lore of the area. Blending the old with the new makes this book interesting and entertaining.

Olivia Gordon works at a horse farm that specializes in rehab therapy for people with physical and mental issues. Her specialty is in horses. She feels horses can teach you boundaries in just about every aspect of life. She loves her job...that is until people start dying for no reason. Olivia is not your normal therapist...she sees and speaks with ghosts. When the owner of the horse farm, Marcus Danby,is found dead of an overdose of heroin she calls her cousin who is a member of the Krewe Unit. Dustin Blake who is FBI and a member of Krewe is sent undercover since he grew up in the Nashville area and no one would suspect he is there to investigate a murder.

Heather Graham weaves an interesting plot by mixing history, modern day and supernatural without it becoming a history lesson. There was just enough mystery and suspense to keep the pages turning. ( )

After finishing, The Night is Alive, I went right for the next book. This time, our murder mystery is happening present day but we also learn a little bit about the civil war time period. We see the characters from the last book, Malachi and Abby, but it is Malachi's cousin Olivia and agent Dustin Blake who are the main characters in this book.
I liked this book, but not as much as the previous one, The Night is Alive. I think I liked the history of the last book better with the pirates and the underground tunnels in Savannah. This book had some Civil War era info. but it just didn't draw me in as much as The Night is Alive. I did however, enjoy the characters more in this story. I didn't really connect with Malachi in the last book. I couldn't get a clear picture of him in my mind and his personality wasn't overly impressive. Dustin seemed more real to me for some reason.
The plot was interesting. I wasn't able to figure out who the killer was until close to the end and that is always good thing. This book has a little bit of everything. Murder mystery, suspense, a little action, romance, and some moments of humor as well. Out of all of the Heather Graham books I have read, this trilogy is still my favorite. ( )
