4 / 5

D.M. Foley delivers an interesting tale in Stepping Into The Star. Because the book deals with the metaphysical, the overall tone is steeped in suspense. Intrigue builds right from the opening pages. For a short story, the character development is well done. It gives the narrative enough depth to make the reader care while avoiding any drag in momentum.
The story unfolds in the present tense through a few different characters' points of view. I enjoyed the format of several short chapters. They complement the fast pace, keeping the story engaging while delivering a complete, satisfying mystery in a compact footprint. Anyone who likes books about the paranormal will enjoy this read.
