A GHOSTLY TALE THAT WILL CHILL YOUR HEART (review)




THE BROKEN GIRLS book review 
by Author Tamera Lawrence

 In 1950 Idlewild Hall is a local boarding school for troubled young women. With an indifferent staff, most of the teens struggle to cope in the bleak walls of Idlewild. Their problems are compounded by the fear of a restless spirit, who seems to have the knack of knowing ones fears. A thread of kinship weaves around four girls, growing into a bond of love and sisterhood. Although all their tales are woeful, one misfits holds a key to a brutal past. As one of the foursome disappears, the trio is left to wonder what horror befell their young friend.

 In 2014 Fiona Sheirdan still struggles over the murder of her sister, whose body was found on the abandoned property of Idlewild Hall. Although her sister’s death appears to be solved, Fiona still has unanswered questions that soon lead her into trouble. But with journalism in her veins, she can only follow the shocking leads that brings danger every closer and with it, the mysterious thread that binds the past to the present at Idlewild Hall. 

Lately I have found little time to read but THE BROKEN GIRLS by Simone St. James caught my eye and I bought the book. There is a little bit of everything in this tale, a ghost, a mystery, a murder, and a love story. What is not to love? A perfect read on a cold winter’s night. I highly recommend it.
