J.R. Rain’s Venice Beach
Book Six of the Medium Mysteries
by Chanel Smith

Some places are thin between worlds. Venice Beach is one of them.

Hollywood’s most haunted psychic, Pauline Ocean, thought she understood the rules of the dead. Then she sees a man in a magician’s suit standing perfectly still on the Venice Beach boardwalk, performing for an audience no one else can see.

Alistair Vane was once a master illusionist. Now he is a ghost bound to the aftermath of his final performance. He does not remember how he died, only that something went horribly wrong during a trick that was never meant to fail. And whatever killed him is still active, still unfolding, and still watching.

When Pauline reaches out to him, she changes something she cannot undo.

Celeste Moran notices.

Elegant, precise, and absolutely certain of one thing, Pauline is not supposed to be touching what she just touched. Celeste believes reality is built, controlled, and enforced, and she does not tolerate errors in the structure.

Now the error has a name.

Pauline Ocean.

As Venice Beach begins to fracture, reflections behaving like doors and shadows moving where they should not, Pauline realizes this is no ordinary haunting. The illusion Alistair died inside is still running, and if it completes, it will lock something into place that cannot be reversed, not in life, not in death.

Worse, Pauline is now inside it.

To survive, she has to unravel a performance that is still happening, outsmart a ghost who may not have been the victim, and stay ahead of a woman who is already treating her like a problem that needs to be removed.

Because in Venice Beach, illusions do not end when the curtain falls.

They wait for the next audience.
