Wide Open

[Medium bookjacket]I recently read the book Wide Open by Deborah Coates.  It was an interesting book.  The author has a very deft hand with atmosphere.  In fact the atmosphere is really the most memorable thing about the book.  It’s set in South Dakota and is basically a mystery that devolves a bit into the paranormal (the mystery’s solution involves a practitioner of magic and the main character can see ghosts & I sure hope that doesn’t give too much away.)  

I’d say it’s definitely worth reading at least a chapter or two to experience the atmosphere.
