Murder Under Redwood Moon" by Sherri Lynn Dodd seems perfect combination of murder mystery, thriller and dark horror. The supernatural element wants me read this one. Thank you for informative review.

What a glowing review for this book! It seems that the graphic violence and cursing helped curate that suspense that you so enjoyed and that helped keep you hooked on the book. I'm glad you were able to also learn some new tea recipes! As an avid tea-drinker myself, I'm definitely going to give this book a read!

Thank you for the in-depth review. The mix of serial killer and witchcraft is original and adds a new layer for people into this type of book. I appreciate the review including the darker aspects as this is not for every reader.

This is a lovely review! I sampled the first chapter where Ian had the dream about Fergus lacerating Arista and he and Keira discovered the scar on Arista's abdomen. I agree that the story's suspense is awesome. I would love to read this enthralling mystery, and I am also intrigued by the tea recipes you mention in the review!

Murder Under Redwood Moon by Sherri Lynn Dodd sounds like a perfect mix of dark magic, serial killers, and deep family bonds. Arista’s journey, from childhood trauma to facing a deadly threat, feels incredibly intense.

I love murder mysteries and fantasy. Combining the two, we get this book. This book even contains witchcraft! I am happy with this book and want to read it. Congratulations on the BOTD, and best wishes for future projects.

Thank you for this beautiful review, Just from reading the review I got interested in the book and I am already hooked because I want to know whether Fergus is related to the disappearing of the children, I also want to know whether Arista will make it out Alive or will she also disappear?
I also love the fact that it also talks about the effect of strict parenthood on the mental health of children.

Witchcraft is curious on its own. It becomes considerably more intriguing when combined with serial killings. Whether magical or not, the novel appears to draw attention to the bleak reality of young women's safety and vulnerability to violent acts.

A murder mystery that blends dark horror and witchcraft is really intriguing. The plot seems so rich that the book will keep the reader on edge till the very end with all its twists and turns. And I hope the serial killer will be caught otherwise I'll have to wait for the next installment as this one ends on a cliffhanger. Congratulations on becoming BOTD!
