Instead she meets an emotionally fragile young widow who's convinced that Lyn's recurring dreams have drawn her to Castle Farm for an important purpose - and she's running out of time.

Gideon Frayne has spent his whole working life as a policeman in the village of Dark on Bodmin Moor. His first missing-child case is eating him alive. When his own boss sends in a psychic to help with the case, he's gutted - he's a level-headed copper who doesn't believe in such things, and he can't help but think that the arrival of clairvoyant Lee Tyack is a comment on his failure to find the little girl. But Lee is hard to hate, no matter how Gideon tries. At first Lee's insights into the case make no sense, but he seems to have a window straight into Gideon's heart.

Boring
This book had such potential, but very quickly I realized it’s just muddled, disorganized and goes nowhere.
Very disappointing, and the American accents were really, really bad.
I feel like this was just a cash grab based on all the hype around Scottish mysteries over the last few years, I was looking forward to this book and barely made it past the first five chapters.
This is saying something considering that a)I live sailboats and used to live on one with my cat and b) that I’m obsessed with all things water related, Scottish, and am a huge mystery fan.
So sad, could’ve been a great book.
Needing a good overhaul…
