Shady Grove Psychic Mystery

Aly’s got enough on her plate, with finishing her degree and taking care of her nephew and starting her new job at the antique store while drooling over the owner's gorgeous son. No time for visions. Alas, the universe doesn't care what Aly believes. When she turns 21, she starts to feel psychic impressions left on objects. A disorienting power for someone surrounded by antiques.

Now that she’s accepted her psychic gifts, Aly’s determined to solve the mystery of her sister-in-law’s death. Unfortunately, between work, starting classes, and her brother’s unwillingness to find the truth, Aly’s having trouble getting answers. Then Aly’s academic advisor and favorite professor turns up dead. Who would want to kill her? The professor who could make tenure in her absence? The privileged student who hates having to retake the class? There’s no shortage of suspects, but Aly’s running out of time to find the killer before they find her.

While visiting an estate sale to pick up new items for Missing Pieces, Aly gets hit with a surprise: The elderly homeowner didn't have a heart attack - she was murdered. Aly's got the evidence in her hands, and the killer is offering to sell it to her. Time to make a deal, then call the police. If only anyone believed her. Miriam Peabody was in her 70s and appeared to die of natural causes. Police found no evidence of foul play, but Aly knows what she saw. Worse, she’s pretty sure the killer has powers of their own.

Another mystery arises: What do you get a psychic toddler for his fourth birthday? Aly wants to make her nephew’s day, but the quest for the perfect gift skids to a halt when she finds the pet store trashed, a trail of blood, and the owner missing. To make matters worse, someone powerful has cursed the residents of Shady Grove. Aly’s powers vanish, along with her brother's and Olive's. Without her psychic gifts, how will Aly track down Katrina's killer and save the pet store?

When Aly gets a vision of herself murdering the town's beloved yet crotchety baker, she's baffled. Obviously, that never happened. But then police arrive at her house with a warrant. If she didn't kill Tony, why does she have his baker's hat?

The world is different. Aly knows who she is, but not much else. She's got a new home, a new job, and a new boyfriend. Still, she's excited to be spending the holidays with her entire family this year. If only there weren't that pesky dead guy in the bedroom.

When the local college announces the spring play, Aly’s roommate Amy proposes trying out together. Amy’s a drama major, so it should be fun. Aly’s surprised to be cast as understudy to the lead. Erica’s a real diva, so Aly vows to learn her lines and stay behind the scenes. But when a stage light falls onto their star, it’s curtains for Erica. Her death looks like a tragic accident until Aly receives a vision of murder. Initially, the police think Aly killed Erica to take her part, but what they don’t know is how badly Amy wanted the role. Or how much she hated Erica.
