Praise for Joan Hall Hovey's Books
AND THEN HE WAS GONE
"This was a well written, riveting, page turner. It kept you guessing and all the characters were nicely fleshed out and relatable. I love how this author always adds a touch of the paranormal. Makes it even more layered and interesting.
I was so impressed that I did this as a book club selection." Good Reads
THE ABDUCTION OF MARY ROSE
“…what a great story! Couldn't put it down… An exciting and suspenseful ending wraps up this incredible novel.” Lynn Demsky: Book Reporter
THE DEEPEST DARK
"… Joan Hall Hovey knows suspense. She keeps it simmering in every scene she writes and knows just the right moments to turn up the heat and bring it all to a boil. THE DEEPEST DARK is a terrific suspense novel.” James Hankins,Author of BROTHERS AND BONES and SHADY CROSS
"…visceral fear is at the heart of The Deepest Dark and just won’t let go from one page to the next. Not only did I have to stay up to find out what was going to happen on that next page…I couldn’t have slept anyway with all my spidey senses on high alert. Every little noise creeped me out and THAT, my friends, is what makes Joan Hall Hovey a genius at writing suspense." Reviewed by Lelia Taylor
“…a highly entertaining thriller that will draw you in with its well written characters and fast paced action. Above all it is full of suspense and an absolute page turner. I warn you not to start reading it unless you have time to read the whole book! I'd recommend it to anyone who enjoys a good thriller and I certainly want to read more books from this author…” Online Book Club
