A horrific crime. A stunning loss. A cop who has suffered a tragedy of his own. All these threads have been woven together into a masterful story by Diana Copland.Matthew Bennett goes through life in one long stretch of days, since he lost someone very dear to him. Being a cop at a murder scene is standard for him, but when the victim is a six year old child, it hits him hard. Even more so when the girl turns to him for help. Matt's sister-in-law takes him to see Kiernan Fitzpatrick, thinking that maybe Matt might find answers as to why he saw the little girl. Matt, of course is skeptical, but he goes along. When he's approached and told things that no one should know, he becomes one at war with himself.I loved Kiernan. He was sweet and goofy and had great taste in shirts (my favorite quote is from one of the shirts he wore in the story). He also has a gift that can take him places no man should have to go.The mystery is solid. The ending is a little scary, all things considered, but the doorway to new hope is opened. Will Matt step through it and allow his heart to live again? Will Abby's death and Kiernan's (shhhh....I can't tell you) destroy him, or will it give him A Reason to Believe?(I have to admit, I wouldn't mind seeing these guys again Ms. Copland. Just sayin'...hehe)Lucky's 5 sweet pea review appears at mrsconditreadsbooks.com/index.php/?p=13022
