The Book Junkie Reads . . . Review of . . . LOST IN THE LIGHT (the Dori Orhuela series) . . .  I very much enjoyed getting know know Detective Dori Orihuela and Vicente. Never mind the fact that Vicente is a ghost from the 1930s era. He was the key and the murdered subject. Dori was the detective needed to find all the clues and solve a murder that no one really knew took place, or did they. The paranormal aspect of this was the intrigue. The ghost that worked to solve his own murder. The memories that we sorted through. The things pieced together to show just how deceptive, deceitful, petty, and horrific the human can be. 

The history of the story brought things to a more real state. Things felt more genuine. 

We have the benefit of this author also being the narrator of the story. That for me was a mixed bag of what will I get. I was pleasantly surprised that this was a very good narration from Mary. She gave the story some extra authenticity and realism with her narration. She of course wrote the story, so who else could know what was going on while it was being written and what it was to portray at what times. This brought the levels of the read up in standards. 

I received this audiobook as part of my participation in a blog tour with Audiobookworm Promotions. The tour is being sponsored by Audiobookworm Promotions on behalf of various authors, narrators, and publishers. The gifting of this audiobook did not affect my opinion of it.










One October morning in 1932, Vicente Sorolla entered the white house on the hill and was never seen again.

Now, Detective Dori Orihuela witnesses his brutal murder in her nightmares.

Drawn to this tough but tender woman, Vicente materializes out of the butler's pantry and asks her to find his lost love, Anna. Dori wonders if she's not only about to lose her badge, but also her sanity.

Dori has always been drawn to the mysterious Queen Anne Edwardian house in her hometown. But after a devastating injury that puts her career on the line, Dori isn't sure if she made the right decision purchasing this rundown old mansion. Her wisecracking Grammy Cena has waited too long for her independent granddaughter to return home. She hires a kooky psychic to banish the ghost and a handsome contractor with whom Dori has an unhappy past. With a promise to Vicente, Dori may solve a forgotten Prohibition era murder. Or she may exhume secrets someone died to protect.

A modern gothic mystery woven with suspense, ghosts, and romance, Lost in the Light was nominated for the Daphne du Maurier Award for Excellence in Paranormal Mystery/Suspense. Fans of Susanna Kearsley, Simone St. James, Diana Gabaldon, Mary Stewart, Kate Morton, and Victoria Holt will want to curl up with Dori on her journey to love, past and present.
