I thought this book was rather interesting. The storyline was one that kept you guessing what really happened to Susan Trench. This was Hallie Knight's assignment. Hallie was called into play by Susan"s grandfather. After uncovering many family secrets--she solves the puzzle.
I really liked it

I'm surprised that anyone was disappointed in it (other reviewers) because I enjoyed it. I will say it was not a typical Phyllis A. but a great read all the same.
Not one of Phyllis whitney's better novels....

But I enjoyed it just the same. As someone else mentioned, i too had problems with some of the dialogue that ran throughout the novel. It read like the characters were reciting from a travel brochure. However, the story itself was interesting to me and read like a typical Phyllis A Whitney novel.AMETHYST DREAMS is about the mystery behind a missing person, Susan Trench. An old college friend of hers, Hallie Knight, is summoned by Susan's grandfather Nicholas Trench, to help figure out who killed Susan, and from there the novel begins. We learn about the people that meant most to Susan, and what Susan was all about. Who wanted her dead? And why? Among the sub plots are Hallie's troubled marraige, Nicholas's relationships with his wife Anne, who was a famous artist now living on her own, and other various persons that lived on Top Sail Island and were somehow connected to Susan.I wouldnt' recommend this as a first novel for those who haven't read other books by Phyllis A Whitney. but as a fan, I would definitely recommend it. Ms Whitney has always been able to create characters that I like, and I find myself wanting to read more simply because she knows how to tell a good story.
Phenominal suspense

This book was gripping, suspenseful, and hard to put down. It was easy to follow, and not drawn out. Phyllis Whitney gets ultra kudos for this one.
Kept me on the edge of my seat!

Amethyst Dreams is a great book for the reader who loves suspence novels. This book kept me on the edge of suspence all the way through it until the last couple of pages, where finally it reveals the truth of the mystery. Also this book was easy to understand and didn't have too many confusing characters to jump back and forth to. I would reccomend this book highly, and I am definately going to read it again!
