Mystery Woman Sleuth

Psychic Abby Cooper is back to crack another case with the help of her crew of spirit guides. After being shot and briefly dying, Abby is somewhat gun-shy about using her psychic skills again. After all, if she couldn't foresee the bullet meant for her before it hit her, how can she help her clients? And would her clients put their trust in her?

As Abby struggles to regain her psychic equilibrium, boyfriend and FBI agent Dutch Rivers requests Abby's help on some cases gone cold. When Abby actually gets a reading from a closed case file, the murder of a cop, she opens up a big can of worms. She knows the real killer isn't the man who confessed to the crime and is now behind bars. Since Dutch doesn't want Abby's help on this closed case, Abby will have to go it alone.

Before Abby knows it she's in over her head again. With the help of some friends, her spirit guides and her psychic senses, Abby may solve this case. But at what cost to her relationship with Dutch? And will the real killer make Abby his next target? Add in some distractions like the evil antics of Dutch's cat and Abby has a full plate.

This is the first Psychic Eye mystery I have read. I think Ms. Laurie has done a good job of covering background for newbie readers to the series without over-explaining things to old fans. I find the signals Abby gets from the other side to be interesting in the way they appear, as metaphors rather than cut-and-dried answers. Readers who love a little woo-woo in their mystery will get a kick out of Abby Cooper and CRIME SEEN!

SUMMARY

Abby Cooper, Psychic Eye, is having a hard time getting over a gunshot wound from her last case-especially because she didn't see the shots coming. Out of work and second- guessing her abilities, she tries to get back in the saddle by helping her boyfriend Dutch with some of his FBI cases. And soon enough, her intuition returns-with a vengeance.
