At the beginning of this book, Ms. Gray dedicates the work to the members of her mothers' occult study group. I wonder if those members were the ones who rated this book with five stars? Having purchased the book on these reviews, I feel very misled. The book is hardly 'erotic' or 'suspenseful'. Buyer beware: This book has been HIGHLY over-rated, and I am sorry I spent time and money on it.
