Have you met people
who are not what they seem?

Know any sociopaths?

They can sap your spirit.
Sometimes they kill you.

Graduate school is a great place,
except when you learn about evil.

receives

THE BLETHER GOLD AWARD
"A truly exceptional read, the finest example of a genre, a book with which the reviewer can find no fault, and which will usually have universal appeal." Blether, The Book Review Site.

Midwest Book Review

“West writes a striking mystery, with deception and sociopaths galore. Detective Sam and Agatha have plenty of juicy history, and act as guides for Meredith's self awakening, even as they hunt for her husband. She intertwines good and evil in a ghostly dance, even as she clearly delineates her characters. The action is nonstop, and West is careful to peel the layers of evil with a practiced eye. The denouement is chilling, and Meredith's discoveries almost lead to her demise...the reader cheers for Meredith's growth and survival. NINE DAYS TO EVIL is a fine effort, and is a well written book with many tentacles. Nancy Glass West is a wise woman with a knack for suspense. NINE DAYS TO EVIL is an engaging first effort.” Midwest Book Review, Shelley Glodowski, Senior Reviewer

“Nine Days to Evil begins as Meredith Laughlin awakens to a call from her husband. Just before losing the connection, she hears the crash of glass and metal. Yet, she is told no accidents are reported in the area…

With the help of Detective Sam Vanderhoven and lessons learned in her graduate school classes, she works toward solving the enigmatic puzzle… The story takes several turns as we become drawn in by characters’ tragic struggle and growth.

I look forward to West’s next mystery so we can follow the characters we get to know here.” Murder and Mayhem Book Club
