About this ebook

In New York Times bestselling author Victoria Laurie’s newest Psychic Eye Mystery, Abby Cooper senses a convicted killer is innocent, but she’ll need hard evidence to save the woman before it’s too late…

A ticked-off judge has tossed Abby in the slammer for contempt of court, and during her brief but unpleasant stay she learns the story of a condemned woman who is facing a far more serious sentence. Skylar Miller has been found guilty of murder and faces the death penalty. Everyone believes she’s guilty, including her own family and her ex-husband—everyone, that is, except Abby, whose finely honed intuition tells her this woman doesn’t belong behind bars.

With the help of her husband Dutch and her friend Candice, Abby launches into her own investigation to clear Skylar and find the real killer. But after a final appeal is denied and Skylar’s attorney scrambles for a stay of execution, time is running short—and the list of suspects keeps growing. There’s no margin for error as the life of an innocent woman hangs in the balance…

Ratings and reviews

In earlier books, I did not like Abby as much, she seem so immature and irritating. But, with each book her character has developed and grown. Great read.

I was happy to read this one. She seems to have gotten her balls back. She cried way too much for my taste for the last 2 books, it was annoying as hell.

This one was just as great as the others. However the subject of a murdered child was a little tough to swallow. Having a son just a year older than the main character made it really hard to not be depressed while reading. But, I couldn't put it down. There was less psychic stuff in this one. I missed that. It was more murder mystery. I like the ones with more psychic adventures I suppose.
