Sarah Bennett has two secrets: she sees ghosts, and she is in love with a spy.
When Sarah takes a job with occult expert Dr Matthew Geisler, he promises to help her understand the sorrowful spirit that seems to have attached itself to her.
As Sarah struggles to cope with the ghostly presence, she runs into Zeke, the man who left her six months earlier and is recovering from injuries suffered in an alleged accident. But Zeke has secrets of his own, and when an attempt is made on Geisler’s life, Sarah finds herself caught in a struggle between the living and the dead.
Unsure who she can trust, Sarah must solve the mystery of the soul determined to haunt her, and save Dr Geisler and herself from an unknown threat.

This book was previously published as WEEPING IN THE WINGS

This is actually a historical fiction, paranormal, mystery, romance book. I thought it was going to be more paranormal mystery with a little hint of romance.
The characters were lovable and the story kept me wanting more!
I liked the characters and the story was well thought out. A perfect read for fans of mysteries.
This is the first book I have read by Terry Lynn Thomas and am looking forward to reading more of her books.

Thanks to the publisher and NetGalley.

I love Riley's writing style - I always get creeped out and spooked when reading these books. Granted, this is only the third book, but so what.
My most immediate consensus was that 'Lock Every Door' would reveal itself as a paranormal genre. I wasn't sure how I felt about that, considering Riley's previous books were mystery/suspense, but I grew to like the idea.
Honestly, this book could have ended in any number of ways and I probably would have been satisfied. Genuine disappointment ensued when Jules first believed a cult lives in the Bartholomew; not because the culprit wasn't of paranormal nature, but because it was so outlandish. However, as hard to believe as it may be, I was more intrigued by what was truly going on and the fact it had been happening for so many generations. The entire mystery was still a bit absurd, but it appealed to me more than the cult theory.
While I may not have enjoyed this book as much as the first two, I still consider myself a Sager fan. I'm excited to see what's in store for any future books!

Now I have that Rolling Stones song stuck in my head...
I loved this story. It really wasn't scary at all, but it had a good paranormal fantasy aspect to it, with a little murder mystery and promises of revenge. It kept me interested until the end, which was ALMOST satisfying. The book made me laugh, made me angry, and made me sad sometimes. I only realized after I finished that the author is actually Stephen King's son. I love Stephen King's stories. His son has a gift of his own though.
