Review: An Edge-of-Your-Seat Nail Biter
Rating: 5 out of 5

With stellar action, a flawed heroine to remember, and wonderfully tight writing, Bad Spirits is a great find. Berkom's Kate Jones is tough and complex, and her misadventures had me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. The book consists of five short stories that, cumulatively, tell the tale of Kate's escape from her Mexican druglord boyfriend - which she manages with a backpack full of his cash to help her along the way. From there, it's a nonstop thrill ride as Kate tries to figure out the good guys from the bad and find some safe haven from the Bad Spirits on her heels. While the conclusion seemed a little abrupt, overall the novel was pitch perfect. I'm looking forward to the next in the series!
