I am a science diver and work at a scuba shop. I originally bought this book because diving is a major theme in the novel. I was a little apprehensive about the main character seeing ghosts and the religious undertones—but this book had me hooked. Keeping up with names and families was a bit difficult, I actually had to write out the names and who was connected on a little sheet of paper I used as a bookmark so I wouldn’t get confused. There were some editing errors I spotted in the book, but all in all, I enjoyed this read! I might pick up another of Coon’s novels! Dallas Edmiston17

Entertaining

This is the first time I read anything by this this author. It would have been a better story if the protagonist hasn’t relied on a supernatural ability to talks with dead people underwater as a major source of information in his investigations. As a life long scuba instructor myself, I enjoyed the integration of diving in the story, but the supernatural elements were a distraction. If it weren’t for that, I worked have given a higher rating. Dee Cash556 1 follower

A Lot to Take In

Ghost River is a pretty good story but a bit difficult for me to keep up with all the players as well as names and initials for equipment and organizations. Gabriel Jones talked to the dead only under water when diving and then saw them off to their eternal home. Some were carried off by angels; others by the hounds of hell. I would have d a different ending but we can't always have it all. William HillAuthor 78 books84

This was an all right read. I found the ghost idea intriguing and the water scenes interesting, and yet the ghosts never cause any issues, except for what people think about the main character because he believes in them. My main disappointment was with the main character's inability to foresee how his actions would cause problems for those around him, or learn from it once they happen. The final confrontation seems contrived.

Exciting action and complex plot, well written without compromising the Christian worldview. Possibly a Calvinist undertow, but not preachy or dogmatic. Characters were full and believable. Even the one situation with the widow ready to move on so quickly was resolved realistically when she took a step back. I recommend this book to anyone looking for action, adventure, suspense, and a touch of romance. Five stars from me. Elisabeth Boyles baney8 3

This book hooked me and reeled me in. I have never heard of this author until I got an offer for this book for free on my kindle. Jon keeps you involved from start to finish and has you wondering what will happen next. I highly recommend this book and will be looking for more of his books myself Jettiep Parrish276
