It took a while for Abby Coopers FBI agent boyfriend, Dutch Rivers, to accept her psychic gifts as the real deal. But these days he knows better than to question Abby's visions. So when his favorite cousin Chase is kidnapped in Vegas, they both catch the next flight to Sin City.
Abby's inner eye insists that Chase is still alive, but nothing else about the case adds up, especially Dutch's reluctance to involve his own Bureau. On top of everything, Dutch is battling a mysterious illness, and Abby keeps having disturbing dreams that predict his death. Dutch wants Abby to promise that if the investigation goes south, shell head home to safety. But when the chips are down, Abby wont fold without a fight.

"go abbey"
i really like this storyline. its fast easy at times i thought i had it figured out but then a twist would pop up. i like the charactors added. it was good for abbey to expand and i love dutch.
i like the give and take with abbey and dutch. ready to start the next one.
"Poorly read and poorly written"
"He said", "She said", "He said" over and over until I thought I was going to scream. The writing was completely second-rate. I rarely write bad reviews, but this one demanded it.
I didn't even finish the book. It was so bad that I tossed it after about 2-1/2 hours. I often like supernatural oriented stories, if they have some charm and don't take themselves too seriously. "First Grave on the Left" (and series), "Nice Girls Don't Bite Their Neighbors" (and series), etc are great.
This one was just plain dull. Paired with the bad writing (see above) and bad reading (see below), it was not worth completing -- a rarity for me...
The narrator speaks in a single voice for all characters. She varies her voice just enough to avoid a monotone, but often pauses in inappropriate places, and gives no sense of character to anyone.
"Fun, Funny and Exhilarating Thrilling"
An incredible gem of a find. It is one of those bnooks I could not put down. I picked it up on a $5 Sale. Love the Audible sales. This psychic thriller mystery novel is fun, well written and suspenseful. The book is loaded with twists and turns. I think I fell in love with Abby Cooper. I will definitely read the rest of the series.

"Got it on sale.....You get what you pay for"
I haven't read any of the other books and don't really plan to. Maybe I'm just not in the mood, but the narrator wasn't my cup of tea. So from the beginning I was struggling to ignore that. Even so, I stopped midway and gave up. Not wasting any more time if it doesn't hold my interest.
"Not impressed"
Up until now I have enjoyed this series. I found this book to be unbelievably boring with just the 3 girls running around doing nothing. It was a waste of time and money and not sure if I am going to read the next one. The other books were cute little mysteries and fun light reading, but this one was none of that. It is like the author was running out of ideas, but had to get a book out, so just kept writing anyway. To bad. I do want to give marks to the Narrator, but even she could not save this book.
