Summary: a really good read
Review: I'm an avid reader, but it wasn't until I read Spirit that I felt compelled to submit a review. This wonderfully entertaining novel about a young woman with clairvoyant abilities is the sort of book you just can't put down once you've started to read it. I have recommended it to all of my friends. I think it's fascinating reading for anyone who lived during the 1930s and 1940s, for anyone who is interested in the occult, and for anyone who just enjoys being engrossed in an unusual story. I believe this is Dolores Riccio's first novel. I'm hoping it won't be her last.

Summary: Embedded with both a necessary hope and an ultimate renewal
Review: Set in the late 1930's and World War II, Spirit by Dolores Stewart Riccio is the story of Brigit, a young woman with clairvoyant powers. As Brigit matures she must learn the lessons of life. Her imaginary childhood friend turns out to be the spirit of a Druid priest, who offers guidance and comfort in her darkest hours. Spirit is enthusiastically recommended reading as being a particularly unique and touching story embedded with both a necessary hope and an ultimate renewal.
