review 1: Great plot - a mix of mystery, romance and paranormal highly seasoned with suspense. Wonderful characters - authentic and interesting. Kate, a divorcée turned photographer who just happens to also be psychic. John, a reporter who meets her while covering a murder she zones in on while in a psychic trance. And then there's Venice. Let's just say she's one of a kind. There's never a dull moment in this well written, entertaining novel. I look forward to reading more by Ellis Vidler.

It's a tense read with a sweet romantic subplot that develops very smoothly. The paranormal element, while central to the plot, is incidental to the character development; if there are to be more books in this series, I'd love to see further development of how Kate's 'gift' affects her personal relationships, since it must be very strange to have sudden insights into, for instance, a partner or friend. less
