Finally Friday and here's a really good read for the weekend - Night Will Find You by Julia Heaberlin.
You'll keep the pages turning on this one. cover blurb: A scientist and reluctant psychic. A little girl who haunts her. Can she find the truth? Everyone believes a little in something they can't see.
cover: Vivvy Bouchet, age ten, saved a boy's life with an impossible prediction. Now she's an astrophysicist in Texas, devoted to science, and she tries to leave visions behind.
She is called to help on a cold case of a kidnapped girl, and teamed with Detective Sharp, who questions her "skills". She's in the crosshairs of a conspiracy podcaster, haunted by her dead mother, and overwhelmed with dreams. cover - Can she lure a kidnaper out of hiding, find a child who haunts her, and lay some of her ghosts to rest?
Whew! It's a lot to process. Heaberlin's characters are a hoot. The dialogue is snappy. And she keeps the plot tight. Had me guessing until the end. (I did read this in daylight...gets a bit creepy at nightfall).
