In 1920s Pasadena, California, Daisy Gumm Majesty caters to the rich and famous as a medium who puts the "con" in conjurer. When she's blackmailed by Detective Sam Rotondo into spying on the wealthy Kincaid family, Daisy isn't quite sure what he's trying to sniff out. When Daisy gives Sam his own private reading, she tells him the spirits have a lot more in store for him. Original.

What a breathe of fresh air in a cozy mystery book. I enjoyed the telling as much as the mystery. I was taken back to a time when Pasadena and Southern California was still young and mostly unspoiled. The narrator did an excellent job with the story and all the characters but especially Daisy.

It was nice to read a historical mystery that was in the good old US and not always in the UK. I cheered when Daisy said the people complaining about the US should go live in Europe lol. I find I still think that especially in recent years.

Daisy is such a square shooter and even though she is considered a con artist for her ”spiritualism” you just know she believes she is doing it to help people that were so devastated by WW1. I will definitely buy more in this series.

Lovely storytelling

Loved everything about this story. From Daisy's family life with a husband crippled by the war (her love for him is so sweet) to her work as a spiritualist. The story flows smoothly via the narrator Denice Stradling who brought the characters to life. Will be purchasing all of series!

Fabulous Daisy!

I just couldn't get in to it. Strong Spirits is boring with flat and uninspired characters. I returned it.
