With the dip in the economy, psychic Abby Cooper is losing much of her client base to the point where she cannot earn a decent living. Her live-in lover is offered a job as Assistant Agent in Charge in Austin in a separate building with agents effective cold cases. Dutch’s boss Brice Harrison is impressed with Abby’s precognitive skills, he offers her work as a “civilian intuitive profiler”; the Feds do not use psychics.
They accept the positions and head to Austin where on her first day Abby applies her psychic talent, which enables the unit to solve a few cold cases in under a week. She accompanies Agent Rodriguez on a meadow inquiry into a car used to transport kidnapped children. They locate the vehicle and talk with the tow truck operator, but as a replacement for meet his son; he shoots Rodriguez forcing Abby to shoot him before he kills them. Internal Affairs investigates the shootings with Rodriguez and Cooper on suspension with pay. Abby continues to look at the missing children’s case that she ties to the deaths of three seemingly unrelated men who are dead, but though she tries she is unable to connect the dots that would perfect the puzzle.
The “Psychic Eye Mysteries” are permanently a treat for paranormal urban whodunit fans. The key to this terrific series is that Victoria Laurie does not try to sell to her fans her star’s skills, but as a replacement for deftly interweaves them into the tale line as a powerful contrivance that supports a much more rounded individual and plot; thus they could exist as they seem “normal” in this person and setting. Obviously Dutch and Abby are in like, but their romantic subplot provides relief, regularly amusing, from the seriousness of the investigations. With a strong cleverly constructed mystery, readers watch a to some extent frustrated Abby work on her own time because a name else is about to be killed.

I’ve been nervously waiting for the book relief and it does not disappoint! Be sure to pick up all of her books if you’re new to the series. Fantastic job again Ms. Laurie!!!

I like this book of the Psychic Eye Mystery seires the best of all of them. I was worried when the character stirred from Royal Oak MI to Austin TX that the books would decline in interest. This is better. Abby, Dutch, Pepper, Brice and Dave have all stirred to Austin and Milo is set to follow. Abby is effective for a special Cold Case Squad of the FBI and Dutch is her boss. She is a profiler, so she can use her intuitive skills while auditing the files. Abby and Pepper strike out on their own to investigate a missing girls case. Brings all sorts of danger to them (as usual). As Dutch says – Abby is a danger magnet.

I like this series and can’t judge that there have been 8 editions already. Abby has managed to get everyone stirred from MI down to Austin, TX where the next chapter of the groups lives starts. Abby faces the perils of being a psychic in a relationship (you know too much)and spends reasonably a bit of time in the ER. The Brice and Candice drama got annoying, I’m surprised Abby didn’t pound on them harder. Next up is an international adventure — I can’t wait!

I have been very lucky to be a fan of Victoria Laurie from her first book. Her writing style is so naturally written, you are immediately drawn into the tales.
Originally set around the Detroit suburbs, this latest in the series is full of surprises, the least bit is a relocation to Ms. Laurie’s new home, Austin Texas. Ms. Laurie personally had lived in the Boston area and stirred to Austin a few yests ago.
The plot and the developements before Abby Cooper, are most significant and the best to date of the series. Dutch, Abby’s boyfriend, had been offered a promotion in the Austin area and he and Abby with their two pups make a new home there. Also coming down is Abby’s friend and office mate, Candice. She is a private investigator, and with the economy especially taking a hit in the Detroit area, she makes the go to the South to continue her career and also works well with Abby in her endeavors.
While I like all of Ms. Laurie’s books, A Glimpse of Evil is the best of the series to date. It introduces Abby to not only to her fellow FBI workers – she is a civil member of the FBI team, giving her special guidence to the Cold Case Files, as well as doing her part to help Candice’s like life with Dutch’s boss Brice, who is coincientally Dutch’s boss.
There is more intense action in this book than in previous series and it makes you so concerned you are on the edge of your seat. Ms. Laurie’s talent is the ability to place you right into the action, and she is masterful doing that, not only in this series, but everything she writes.
I am writing my first novel, (although have been featured in fleeting tale and poetry anthologies), so I have learned much about writing style from Ms. Laurie.
Strong storyline, storn cast of characters and fine writing – what more can a fan of the paranormal can question for?
Wonderful things take place to the characters in this book, and I for one, cannot wait for the next in the series.
Laurie’s Abby Cooper is a fantastic character, and she is a wonderful young lady, and most talented in her intuitive work. I’ve said this before, and will keep adage this until it is not relavent – not only do you get a fantastic tale to read, but you also can find what it is to look in the mind of the psychic, Hard work, but appealing to see the process and the sweetness Abby helps her coworkers.
Abby is a civil employee of the FBI, and gets to work closely with Dutch and a new team of FBI employees. The tales Ms. Laurie and team she works will are acceprtional but sceptacle, but soon realize Abby and her crew are indeed the real deal.
Victoria Laurie is like that too – talented and gracious enough to let us learn what it is like to have the God agreed talent of being psychic and wanting to know the hows and whys of that process.
Keep ‘em coming, Ms. Laurie! Can’t wait for this sequel, as well as your additional series!
A fantastic read you will delight in.
