About Kay Hooper

Now, it is true that it is possible to guess the killer from the evidence that Kay Hooper gives the reader throughout the novel. However, the ending is the one thing the book could do without. To call something “unbelievable” might be a cliche, but in this case doing so only indicates the obvious. Kay Hooper herself would likely have to resort to something psychic to show how the ending fits. Such endings are characteristic of writers that have far less talent than Kay. Even despite this, in books where Hooper abstains from resorting to such methods to untie the plot she is at her best. Even Out of the Shadows shines where it doesn’t have to be too logical, and her knowledge of paranormal has indeed raised questions if the author herself has some knowledge of the truly occult.
