The Night VisitorThe Night Visitor by Dianne Emley is her new paranormal thriller. Publisher: Alibi/Random House, September 2014

Gorgeous and successful, Rory Langtry seemed to have it all. Daughter of a movie star and sister of a supermodel, Rory was engaged to sexy artist, Junior Lara. But her bright future went dark one terrible, bloody night that left her sister dead and the accused murderer, Junior, in an extended coma.

Now, five years later, Rory appears to have put the past behind her. She has a wonderful new fiancé and heads a successful cosmetics company… yet dark secrets threaten. Across town, Junior lies close to death but before he departs he seeks to clear his name.

It starts with a feeling. It turns into a vision. Soon Rory has sensations that only Junior could experience—from the horrifying to the erotic. Then she learns details about the awful night that only Junior could know, newfound knowledge with potentially fatal consequences. When another act of violence rocks her family, Rory plunges deeper into the unsolved mystery, led by an inexplicable visitor to a dangerous time and place where all will be revealed at last. But until then, Junior will not let her go.

I love it. Rory is experiencing visions from her ex-fiancé who lies in a coma when the reason becomes clear. Was he not responsible for her sister’s death? This takes Rory on an adventure that had my heart palpitating as I had to know if she was going to come out of this alive.

This fast-paced drama pulled me immediately into the world of Rory and her visions and quickly became a page-turner. The author did a great job in kicking the suspense up a notch with plenty of twists and turns that kept me immersed in all that was happening. The tone and flow of this paranormal plot lend itself to the intensity and riveting action throughout this strong storyline of justice served in this grippingly thrilling tale of suspense. This is a great addition to the works by author Dianne Emley.
