What people are saying...

"When I started to read this book, I thought I would just read a few chapters. 'Hello,' I read over half of it before putting it down. I finished the rest the second sitting. It is a great book! I cannot wait to read the sequel." Sue B. - Apple Valley, CA

"A well-crafted story, this novel is a fascinating mix of history and fantasy. Roberta's carefully researched setting in two time periods might just inspire readers to travel to Virginia City to walk in the steps of her engaging characters and look for glimpses of the 'lady in burgundy'." Kathy S. - Byers, CO

"The book held my interest from page one. I read it from cover to cover in one sitting." Ron S. - Byers, CO

"Chapter 1 grabs your attention and each subsequent chapter compels you to continue. It's a paranormal story that is very believable and masterfully told as it unfolds through its interesting characters. When I finished reading the book, I smiled and felt good." Al A. - Apple Valley, CA

"Very creative, original, heartwarming; makes me want to go to Virginia City and see if I can find the orphanage house with the big shade tree--I know it must be there...right around some corner if I can just find the right street...with luck, maybe I'll even catch a glimpse of the ghost of Lucianne." Hazel S. - Hesperia, CA
