Brianna Winston-Beaufort thinks that she is lucky to find an inexpensive office for rent in a prime business area of Savannah. When she goes to see the property she discovers that the building is sitting next to a private, all-murderers cemetery. The landlord, Lavina, who lives in the building, also appears to be very eccentric. Strange things begin happening immediately. Brianna takes the space and obtains a client list that she has inherited from a recently-deceased relative. She also receives some gifts from a former professor who was very special to her. The gifts include a cell phone which has a message from a recently-deceased, publically-known man who wants to hire her.
Brianna discovers that she is to be part of an organization that will represent deceased clients who are trying to defend their way into heaven. She isn't too sure that she wants this job, but people and even animals come into her life to help give her support with her cases. She also uncovers some important secrets about her own past. She learns that in addition to her education, she also has special gifts that can help her with her cases and deal with the evil that she encounters.
I loved reading "Defending Angels" by Mary Stanton! It is a "Beaufort & Company Mystery," so I hope that there are many more books to follow in this series. Mary Stanton has developed a wonderfully unique idea as a basis for this paranormal murder mystery series. I really enjoyed that she included animals with special abilities in this book. She also did an excellent job of bringing the magic and mystery of Savannah alive to make you feel like you are really there. This is a must read for all fans of paranormal mysteries. It would also make a great book for a reader's group. It will definitely generate some fun discussions.
