Review: Murder at First Sight (Suddenly Psychic, Book 1) by JP Bird

 

When a good deed might lead to murder…

Coerced into posing as a seer at her small town’s spring fair, barista and aspiring artist Amelia Wethers dives into the dramatic role, comforting herself that it’s only a few hours and then she can indulge in sweet and savory snacks. When the wealthy and snarky Summer Foster swans into her tent inquiring about the expected success of her swanky summer party, Amelia’s not prepared for the crystal ball to fill with smoke and reveal the shockingly violent murder of Summer’s husband.

Amelia grapples with skepticism, anger, and scorn as she tries to warn wealthy scion Phillip Foster that he’s a target for murder in a few weeks. Discovering she’s descended from a long line of psychics complicates Amelia’s investigation, especially when the town’s newest and distressingly handsome homicide detective dogs her every step and suspects her of murder.

It’s a race to the finish, and Amelia will do anything—including pre-dawn hot yoga, adopting her brother’s feral ferrets, missing dessert, setting herself up as bait and making a fool of herself—to stalk a killer.

 

My Review:  

A fast-paced and unpredictable story. 

It took playing a psychic at a festival to bring out Amelia Wethers’ true psychic powers.  Amelia witnessed a murder in her crystal ball and she is determined to prevent the murder before it happens. Along with new detective in town, Nick Peters, Amelia sets out to catch the killer. Along the way, they find a little romance too. This is the first book I have read by this author and it definitely won’t be the last. I enjoyed every minute of this story and can’t wait to read the next book in the series.
