Fans of Harper Connelly and TV’s Medium will love the psychic detective in this New York Times bestselling series….
Abby Cooper can’t believe her eyes after the police show her surveillance video of her best friend and business partner, Candice Fusco, shooting a man in cold blood. And when the cops tell her they think the victim has ties to the Mob—and perhaps Candice does too—Abby can’t believe her ears. Surely there is a logical explanation. But Candice is nowhere to be found.
Trusting her intuition, Abby decides to search for the truth in Vegas—which may be the biggest gamble of her life. Once in town she begins to uncover a rigged game of dirty double-dealing where the stakes are no less than life and death. And if she’s not careful, Abby can forget about ever leaving Las Vegas...alive.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Laurie ventures into thriller territory with her far from cozy 12th Psychic Eye mystery featuring psychic Abby Cooper (after 2013's Deadly Forecast). Early one morning at home in Austin, Tex., Abby gets a voicemail from her best friend and business partner, Candice Fusco, who asks that she hide a document stashed in a safe in their office. "It's not how it looks," Candice claims, but a security tape soon surfaces showing her shooting a man point-blank in an airport parking lot. The police suspect that both the victim and Candice, who has disappeared, have links to organized crime. Abby's FBI agent husband, Dutch Rivers, and Candice's new husband, FBI agent Brice Harrison (who is also Abby's boss), assist in the effort to find and exonerate Candice. Laurie portrays the mobsters involved in too mild a light, but she adds welcome psychological depth to Abby, who must function more like a PI than a psychic.
