Greta descriptions of characters,events,and settings bring the story alive. The plot has the twists and turns that mystery readers love. This book is truly a great read. I look forward to E. M. Alexander's next book.

With an intriguing and suspenseful plot, readers will be drawn into Alexander's story of murder, greed, and ultimate betrayal as experienced by an extraordinary young woman who must learn about life the hard way. In this excellent coming of age story, the heroine ultimately discovers not only how she feels about herself but also how she feels about others in her life. Death at Deacon Pond is a moving and poignant tale that is sure to hook any young adult reader. Kudos to E.M. Alexander. We will look for more from this talented author!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I felt as though I were right there with the main character, Kerri, because the author paints such vivid descriptions of setting and character emotions. Ms. Alexander kept my curiosity piqued throughout the book. A very interesting twist at the end!

E.M. Alexander firmly plants the reader in a believable teenager's world and then keeps us there through unexpected twists and turns. Starting from the fun teenage beer bash in the beginning, the reader will simply not be allowed to become bored throughout the story. For a fun mystery, a charming teenage relationship, and suspenseful action, all with a extraordinarily well done supernatural twists, "Death At Deacon Pond" is a stellar novel!

The author has spent time to build the characters' personalities and the details of the story - not just trying to jump into a "quick scare". A well written suspense/thriller is my favorite reading and this book was that and more . I have purchased several to give out as Christmas Gifts!
