"Hysterical chick-lit mystery."

Though professional "intuitive" Abby Cooper makes a living helping people make better decisions through telling them their futures, she's never felt her life is exciting. All the blandness she feels immersed in disappears when Abby falls -- unexpectedly -- smack in the middle of a murder investigation through revealing a little too much during a computer blind date. Even worse than her own life appraisal is that the detective in charge of the case doesn't trust, or even believe in, her abilities. Add to that a heaping amount of guilt when Abby realizes that one of the victims was a client whom she'd recently given the brush-off, and she's ready for her old boring life back again.

ABBY COOPER, PSYCHIC EYE is hysterical. The characters are all realistically drawn and the situations go from interesting, to amusing, to laugh-out-loud funny. The best thing a person can do to while away the cold winter is to cuddle up in front of a fire with this wonderful book.

She can see right through you...

Summary

You'd think being clairvoyant would give Abby Cooper the ability to avoid danger.

But being psychic doesn't necessarily allow you to sidestep murder and mayhem—it just lets you know that it's coming...

In the Royal Oak suburb of Detroit, thirtysomething Abby Cooper lives a life that's kind of like vanilla ice cream—good enough, but a little bland. Her work as a P.I—psychic intuitive—can be rewarding, but she feels like somehow she's missing out on the hot fudge topping...

Now she's getting what she wished for—as one of her clients turns up dead and the clues start pointing in Abby's direction. She just knows too many details about the murder for her own good. To make matters worse, the hot blind date she just met turns out to be the lead investigator on the case. And gorgeous Detective Dutch Rivers is convinced she's a fraud.

No matter how great her psychic abilities are, Abby isn't completely sure she can solve this case. Unfortunately for her, though, the killer's pretty convinced...
