The Haunting of Hoover Dam (The Mystery House Series Book 5)

I loved the entire book, honestly. Pohler creates an engaging group of characters with real flaws that still manage to be great people. I love the entire mystery house series.

In this 5th installment of the Mystery House Series, author Eva Pohler, once again weaves her unique blend of literary magic to produce a spellbinding story incorporating historical fact, clean romance, and paranormal intrigue. While the story could be enjoyed as a standalone, I think the fullest appreciation will be had by those who have read the whole series. The delightful main characters, Ellen, Sue, and Tanya evolve throughout the course of the series in terms of their personal lives as well as their professional endeavors as paranormal investigators and ghost healers. This story has them traveling to the Silver State (Nevada) to probe the possible paranormal etiology of a mysterious illness that has left medical experts baffled. Their research uncovers a link to the Hoover dam and those who died during its construction. While the dam represents an amazing architectural achievement, the working conditions and corporate greed cast an ugly shadow over the project. Our intrepid heroines commit themselves to uncovering the whole truth behind the deaths of the many workers who “died to make the desert bloom”. The story is captivating, the characters are fun and relatable, and the underlying mission of these wonderful ladies to help all people to the best of their abilities, regardless of whether they are living or long dead, is uplifting. I will definitely be on board for their next adventure.

I would be remiss if I did not mention that the narrator, Debbie Andreen, gives an excellent performance in the audiobook version of this story. She has a wonderfully pleasing voice and the ability to make the characters and the story come alive.

I was provided with a copy of the audiobook version of this story by the author and I am voluntarily offering my honest and unbiased review.

This was such an interesting book. I got hooked in straight away and was rooting for the 3 main ladies the whole time. I loved the history that was guiding this story. Haunted twists were awesome. Another great read from the wonderful Eva Pohler.

This book was intriguing and had lots of historical information. A great read and everyone should have a go at it.

I really enjoyed listening to this audio book! This is book 5 in the series, and can be read as a stand alone, but you will get so much more if you read them in order!

Ellen and her friends never have a dull moment. Uncovering secrets of the past is what these ladies seem to do best! The history aspect is great and keeps my interest.
