Abby Cooper ticked off the wrong judge when she used her psychic powers to reveal his innermost secrets in a packed courtroom. She's instantly hauled off to the slammer, and thanks to overcrowding, placed in a cell with a death row inmate. The inmate is awaiting her final appeal, and Abby senses that the woman is innocent, and condemned to die for a crime she didn't commit.

Abby knows she has to save Skylar Miller and recruits her husband Dutch and her best friend Candice to help her. As they delve further into the murder of Skylar's nine year old son, the danger lurking from the real killer ramps up. Will the truth be revealed in time to save Skylar? If Abby's psychic ability has anything to say about it, things will work out – but will they work out for the best? It remains to be seen...

Victoria Laurie worked as a professional psychic before she began work as a full time author. She writes both The Psychic Eye series and The Ghost Hunter series. I had the opportunity to meet Ms. Laurie when she visited my local library several years ago, and found her to be a most intriguing woman. I was already a fan of this series at the time, and am always delighted when there is a new book out. Sense of Deception is another in a long string of winners. It's a captivating read that I simply could not put down. If you enjoy a good mystery with a touch of the paranormal, a happily married couple of detectives, loveable pets, good friends, and a flair for the human nature to seek justice, you'll love this book.
