I thoroughly enjoyed this read. The author dips into Colorado history and combines it flawlessly with the present using unique and beautiful description, snappy dialogue, and well-developed characters. The blend of paranormal with natural events is nicely balanced and intriguing. It is fast paced, fun, and overall very entertaining.

5.0 out of 5 stars So attached to the characters
I have no idea how the author made me so attached to the characters but I loved the book and characters crying right along side them. Thank you for the wonderful read DJ Davis!
5.0 out of 5 stars Calpulli grabs you and won’t let go
Couldn’t put this book down! Mystery is my favorite genre and I love when an author keeps me guessing, when the ending is not predictable. DJ Davis knocked it out of the park with Calpulli.
5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic and Awesome
This book was FANTASTIC, I had a very hard time putting it down for meals and sleeping. Glad I’m retired so I didn’t have to miss any work! The story had me laughing and crying all the way to the end. Can’t wait to get started on her next book!
