Indigo by Karen Hulene Bartell

               About Indigo: Reeling after a broken engagement, a woman inherits a rustic cabin on a Wisconsin lake and intends to flip it as quickly as possible. But eerie incidents, along with rumors of a mythical windigo, cause her more than a little alarm. Surrounded by shady real-estate agents, ruthless threats, and a treacherous ex, she is overwhelmed—until a rescued puppy and a shocking spark with a local man sets her world on fire…literally…

Our Review: With a complex series of sub-plots, author Bartell excels at presenting characters so vivid and true to life, they jump off the page. From a couple fly-by-night real estate agents to an ex-fiancé worthy of any TV documentary about serial con artists to some really creepy neighbors—who may or may not be blood relations to the heroine—this is a story that deserves time in order to absorb and relish the meaning. To read it too fast risks missing important points that should not be ignored.

 

Based on a scale of 1-5, Indigo merits a 5.
