I see where the bodies of murder victims
are hidden.
I see what they are staring at with their dead eyes.
When small-town college teacher Fae Nelson finds
her pesky neighbor, Lani Pochard, dead in a ditch, Fae’s latest vision has come
true. Lani’s demise—caused by an unfortunate combination of alcohol, Boozabuse,
and mud—is officially ruled an accidental death. Fae sees things differently, in
part because her neighbor continues to haunt her—now from the other side.
Fae knows Lani is trying to tell her … something. Even Gwen
Blackwaters, the experienced intuitive whom Fae adopts as her “psychic
sponsor,” cannot find the message in the madness. Yet, Lani’s eerie interference
compels Fae to examine her own ambivalent attitude toward her paranormal
abilities. So begins a journey of the soul and an investigation into Lani’s
murder.
But as she fills in the outlines of Lani’s bizarre life, more
and more suspects appear: a despicable boyfriend, two discarded husbands, three
disconnected children, and a number of second-degree contenders. All with
stories of a Lani so malicious, Fae wonders . . .Who didn’t have a
motive to kill her?
The “slings and arrows” of outrageous suspicion shoot every
which way, while the haunting escalates until Fae’s very life is at stake. The
reluctant psychic sees that she truly does need all her six senses to discover
who served her neighbor that lethal last cocktail. She must send Lani a clear
message
. . . Get an afterlife!
The reader may ask, “Is this real or is it séance fiction?”
The answer is both.
