Garnet McGee Series

The first time I died, I didn't come back alone. When Garnet McGee returns to her small Vermont hometown for the holidays, she vows to solve the mystery of the murder which shattered her life ten years ago.  Then she dies. After she's resuscitated, she starts hearing voices, seeing visions and experiencing strange sensations. Are these merely symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder and an over-active imagination, or is she getting messages from a paranormal presence? Garnet has always prided herself on being logical and rational, but trying to catch a killer without embracing her shadow self is getting increasingly difficult. And dangerous, because in a town full of secrets, it seems like everybody has a motive for murder. Stephanie Plum (Janet Evanovich) meets Medium in this fast-paced and haunting crime story with a psychic twist. Great reading for fans of Paula Hawkins, Gillian Flynn, Ruth Ware and Liane Moriarty.   BONUS CONTENT! This ebook contains a sneak preview of chapters 1 and 2 of the second book in the Garent McGee series, The First Time I Fell. Reviewers are saying: "Leaves you breathless. I LOVED this a LOT. Incredibly clever … It genuinely kept me guessing and, between that and the incredible characters, it kept me turning pages like the book was crack. I literally spent all day reading it. All. Day. Practically in one sitting. All in all, this book was an emotional roller-coaster. I definitely, HIGHLY recommend this book to any mystery lover — but ESPECIALLY if you're a reader like me, who gets pretty burnt out on the repetitiveness of the mystery genre. I can guarantee that this book will restore your faith in the genre." - Dream With Your Eyes Open Book Reviews "A fabulous mix of love story and paranormal mystery, skillfully stitched together with beautiful writing. A gripping, sometimes funny and heart-wrenching read!" - Edyth Bulbring (Author: The Mark, The Club)

Egged on by her eccentric mother, Garnet starts investigating. Police Chief Ryan Jackson is intrigued by the "readings" she gets about the case, but others are determined to stop her amateur sleuthing. Meanwhile some inexplicably strange things are happening at home. Garnet is determined to find out who killed the beautiful woman loved by so many, but that will mean taking the leap into trusting not only others, but also her own growing psychic abilities.
