Summary: Abby Cooper lives her life working as a psychic intuitive. She help people by using her unique talent and earns a decent income from it. Every day is the same as the one before but when one of her client turns up dead, things start to get wild. Dutch Rivers, Abby's potential boyfriend, turns out to be the one in charge of Abby's client case. The murderer thinks that Abby knows more than she really does and decided to stop her from talking. Now, instead of just dealing with Dutch and gathering clues, she also has to fight off this murderer as he/she attempts to take her life. 

Review: I enjoyed every second of the time that I spend on reading this book. It was fast-paced but still full of information and yet not overwhelming at the same time. This is absolutely the best book that I have ever read and would recommend it to people that likes mystery with a pinch of romance involved. 
My favourite part is when Abby gets questioned on her psychic power and when it starts to get on her nerve, she takes action. She would usually begin with a question and eventually goes into psychic mode, revealing details of the person's personal life. In the end, the person is left dumb-folded and confused. 
Though despite the fact that it is an awesome book, the way the crime was solved left more to be desired. It was rushed and lacked details. It would have been better if it was longer and there were more actions involved. 


P.S. This was the only video I can find on the book.
