It is worth noting that many of the reviews give
away most, if not all, of the details behind the story. This review absolutely does
not. This review, unlike many others out there at Amazon and elsewhere, is safe
to read without ruining this very good novelette.
Far different in style and tone from the Bruce
Kohler Series written by author Elizabeth Zelvin is Shifting
Is For The Goyim recently released by Untreed Reads. Emerald Love is a
singer and a good one. Thanks to Michael, her boyfriend and fellow musician, she
has had several number one hits. Immensely popular she is now one of those one name
artists such as Cher, Madonna, etc.
She’s come a long way from her home in Pumpkin Falls, New York.
With crowd leaving for their homes she is now on the
way to her family home for Passover. She’s missed the last five by way of being
on tour, but there is no missing this one. For many reasons she will wish she
had in this tale of the paranormal, death, faith, and family relationships.
This is a sometimes dark story of pain and loss for
different from the often humorous Bruce Kohler Series. It is also
incredibly good and features a complicated character, Emerald Love, who is very
worthy of her own novel series. One hopes that such might be in the works based
on this very complicated and very short mystery tale.
