Jackal in the Mirror

Sarah Thompson’s powerful psychic abilities have flourished after her adventures in The Gift of the Twin Houses and Secrets of Innocence.

In Jackal in the Mirror, Sarah once again takes center stage in a disturbing mystery that starts the moment she enters a timeworn bookstore in Eureka, opens a book, and a terrifying scream escapes from its pages. 

Eureka, California, the Victorian seaport famous for its paranormal stories, is the spot Sarah’s friends pick for their all-women four day escape. But for Sarah the location instantly stirs a premonition, and it’s not about the tales of hauntings that make up Eureka’s distinctive history. It’s a restless spirit reaching out to her. 

The voice emanating from the book insists that Sarah must help. But refuses to say who, how, or why. The only clue it offers is an ominous novel filled with scenes of illicit passion, deception, and murder. When the book mysteriously transforms into a collection of poems, Sarah is stumped. 

Away from the safety of her husband and home, Sarah is on her own to follow a perilous search to uncover the threat and save the lives of unsuspecting victims.
