Chronicle Supposing Books Mortal Fire (The Secret of the Journal #1)

Twenty-nine-year-old, independent, and self-assured Cambridge history professor Emma D'Eresby has one obsession in life: the curious journal of a seventeenth-century Englishman, a portion of which was left to her by her late grandfather.

When an unexpected opportunity to study the journal in its entirety presents itself, Emma finds herself leaving Cambridge to take up a year-long position at a prestigious university in Maine. Anticipating a quiet year of research, Emma quickly discovers her work impeded by a range of unforeseen complications. From the start, there is the well-intentioned matchmaking of her vivacious Russian colleague, Elena Smalova, and the unexpected jailing of one of her post-graduate students. More troublesome, however, are the unsolved, brutal night attacks on women near the university and Emma's suspicion that they might be linked to the sinister English professor, Kort Staahl. But, most diverting and disconcerting of all, is Emma's growing attraction to the strikingly handsome Dr. Matthew Lyons, whose kind but deliberately distant demeanor puzzles her.

Suspense and dread mount when Kort begins to take a persistent and unsettling interest in Emma. What are Kort's intentions, and what is he capable of? And the mystery surrounding Matthew only deepens when Emma discovers a link between him and the journal. What is Matthew trying to hide?

Critique Out Of Books Mortal Fire (The Secret of the Journal #1)

What can I say about this book? There was a lot she said, he said blah blah. No action, no suspense. This book should not be compared to the twilight series. Very misleading. I was half way through the book and thought to myself, what??? Skimmed through, still nothing.

C.F. Dunn has written an interesting tale that fans of Twilight will enjoy. Emma DEresby has come to the U.S. after teaching as a history professor at Cambridge. She may be young, but is one of the brightest in her field. She is interested in a seventeenth century journal by an Englishman, a portion of which was left to her by her late grandfather. She comes to a University in Maine to study the journal in full. All she wants to do is focus on her research but that isnt what happens. She becomes

Seeking access to a seventeenth-century journal, history Professor Emma D'Eresby leaves England for a temporary position at a prestigious university in America. Her arrival sparks a flurry of curiosity at her British accent and her surprising area of expertise examining the historical use of torture for the "benefit and salvation of the recipient". She soon catches the eye of several male admirers, one of whose attention grows increasingly disturbing by the day. When Emma is attacked, she is

Mortal Fire was not what I was expecting. I really wasnt sure I wanted to review it, but something about it intrigued me, and wow am I glad I did not pass on this book. While I love pretty much all Christian fiction, this book stood out as a different type of book. There were some parts that were a little slow, but the author is very good at building a story with careful and deliberate descriptions without forgetting action and suspense.One of the things I loved about this book was that it is

First the bad news (ok, maybe good news, depends on if you're a glass half full/empty person)- this is the first book of a planned TRIOLOGY. Ok, you can sigh now, as you know what that means- not all the answers to the questions posed in the synopsis will be answered! Secondly, this is a BIG book at almost 400 pages, yet I read it in 2 nights- so yes, you are gonna scream right on through it, and then have that quintessential reading moment of "Nooooo, it can't be over"....luckily the author

This book was so enticing. I loved it's mysterious quality. I am hoping the second book comes out very soon.

Have you ever read a book that makes you have more questions than answers? That wasn't anything like what you thought it might be but that it didn't matter? The answer to both of these questions concerning this book is a definite yes! I was half way through the book and still didn't have a clue as to what exactly the book was about. The back cover says "Emma, a young and self-contained professor of history, leaves Cambridge for a post in an exclusive university in the USA, intent on finding a
