The Delphi Effect

The Delphi Trilogy, Book 1

By: Rysa Walker

Narrated by: Kate Rudd

It's never wise to talk to strangers...and that goes double when they're dead. Unfortunately, seventeen-year-old Anna Morgan has no choice. Resting on a park bench, touching the turnstile at the Metro station - she never knows where she'll encounter a ghost. These mental hitchhikers are the reason Anna has been tossed from one foster home and psychiatric institution to the next for most of her life.

When a chance touch leads her to pick up the insistent spirit of a girl who was brutally murdered, Anna is pulled headlong into a deadly conspiracy that extends to the highest levels of government. Facing the forces behind her new hitcher's death will challenge the barriers, both good and bad, that Anna has erected over the years and shed light on her power's origins. And when the covert organization seeking to recruit her crosses the line by kidnapping her friend, it will discover just how far Anna is willing to go to bring it down.

Slow start, but got good!

This started pretty slow for me. Didn't really get where it was going until you meet Aaron and Taylor and learn about their gifts too. Anxious for the next one already!

Solid and engaging story

Great performance. The number of characters was a challenge to keep.up with at times. I will definitely read the next book in the series.

Awesome!

if this review is optional how come it is making me do something with 15 words :-) I love this book :-)

It's alright, probably get there next

Teen book, not bad. The story has some ten angst, slight love build up, and leads into espionage back story. I'll probably get the next book!

I liked the story but the performance was distracting

The story was very captivating and new enough to hold my attention. However, the narrator's way of enunciating each word drove me crazy. It's not so much that she read it poorly, it's that she read it too properly. The conversations were stilted, almost as if someone were reading who spoke English as a second language (nothing wrong with that) and they wanted to make sure and get each word correct. It did not have conversational flow I guess. I think if there are more books in the series I my prefer to read them myself.
