Praise for Shattered Souls

"Drawing readers into a world where the past holds secrets that can offer salvation or destruction, with spirits haunting every nook and cranny, Mary Lindsey crafts a tale that is frightening, beautiful, and wonderfully memorable."
                                            
- Andrea Cremer, New York Times bestselling author of NIGHTSHADE  

"...Lindsey deftly remolds and refreshes familiar elements and makes them her own, coupled with a light romantic touch. Her accomplished writing breathes energy into realistically flawed characters and smoothly builds to the book’s intense climax." 
                                                                                                                                                           - Publishers Weekly

"Lindsey has created a credible world and distinct and compelling characters in this first novel. Twisting together fantasy, realism, romance, and suspense, she tells a story that evokes empathy for all three teen characters, while showing how analytical thought can be applied to life’s most difficult problems."

"Creepy and engaging from the start, Shattered Souls twists ghosts with the heaven and hell concept in an original and well executed manner. With a strong protagonist, action and build up early on, and an explosive climax, this one definitely pulls the reader in from the start and doesn’t let go. Add in the gorgeous writing and blend of easy banter and intense situations, and this is a stellar debut and an author to take note of.”
