Midnight: Tales of a Blackened Soul, Book 1 by Deidra D. S. Green
A Review By: SQ
London was on the hunt. Her intention was to kill.
London De La Motte is not a believer in religion or religiosity. She never found a use for it, considering her troubled past and no place for it in her life as a private investigator. An encounter with a statue in a historic Catholic church sets London on a path of psychic vision and vigilante justice; righting injustices from the past and present. What she didn’t know is that her brush with Saint Cecilia’s graven image was far from accidental. It was destiny; conjured by Mama Bah, a voodoo high priestess some 25 years before. London’s world is rocked by this newfound giftedness. The question is, what will she do when the past and present come crashing down around her.
If you are sensitive about race-related issues, this may not be the book for you.
This book does end in a cliff-hanger.
This is the first book in the Tales of the Blackened Soul series.
Review Notes:
Audio Book Publication Year: 2021
An installment in a Series? Yes
Narrator (s): Wesleigh Siobhan
“Midnight” is a bridge between the past and present, in more ways than one. This book is unapologetically BLACK! It is a cliffhanger, however the rest of the series is completed and available on Amazon, not yet Audible!
This is the book where the heroine is no damsel in distress! London is unapologetically in charge of her destiny and has ‘get back’ for the injustices that she finds out about through her gift. You get mad with her and can’t help but cheer for her as the book goes on. When I say that Wesleigh gave this book life?! It was enough to make me go and read the rest of the series! I cannot wait for it all to come to Audible!
There was nothing that I didn’t enjoy about this book!
