Mystery
When famed psychic Perspicacious Peg predicts a murder will occur at Englandβs Belief and Beyond conference, her science-minded colleagues recruit twenty-six-year-old budding sleuth Emily Castles to attend the event as a βfuture crimes investigator.β The suspected victim: celebrated magician Edmund Zenon, who plans to perform a daring stunt at the conferenceβand is offering fifty thousand pounds to any attendee who can prove that the paranormal exists. In the seaside town of Torquay, Emily meets a colorful cast of characters: dramatic fortune-teller Madame Nova; kindly Bobby Blue Suit and his three psychic dachshunds; Sarah and Tim Taylor, devastated parents mourning their late son; and religious cult members Hilary, Trina, and the Colonel. Tensions rise as believers in science, the supernatural, and the spiritual clash with one another. But once a body count begins, Emily must excuse herself from the sΓ©ances and positivity circles, and use old-fashioned detective work to find the killer.
