Regina Cutter is the mother of two grown children and the victim of her husband's midlife crisis. Out a marriage, an income, and a place to live, she has relocated to Boston, where her psychic aunt bequeathed her a townhouse...and paranormal ability.Adjusting to her new middle-class life and new job as a police psychic, Reggie is called in to help prove the false imprisonment of a drug felon and end the possible haunting of a recently renovated townhouse. But the really strange thing is how well Reggie is settling down into this brand new life.
Cecelia Tishy provides a cool, clear portrait of Boston's property landscape while giving her heroine enough edges to make her more than a television show premise. * CHICAGO Tribune *
Introduces an engaging new heroine...Tishy does a good job conveying the feel of contemporary Boston. * PUBLISHERS WEEKLY *
With just the right degree of psychic intercession, Tishy neatly interweaves the disparate threads of her newly divorced, forty-something protagonist's life. An appealing mix of foolish enthusiasm and derring-do, Reggie makes a reasonable credible and quite likable amateur detective. * BOOKLIST *
