Description
A twisting, turning thriller from the author of With Malice
Two girls, one fatal reading . . . because the truth always lies in the cards
Skye's mother believes she has 'the gift' - the ability to see the future. Skye however can only see the opportunity to make money - and happily fleeces her gullible classmates into handing over their cash to hear their futures through Skye's well-worn tarot cards. But it's all for a good cause, right? Skye needs to save her hard-earned cash to go to New York with her best mate Drew.
Then the local mayor's daughter, Paige, disappears - and Skye has a tip off about her whereabouts. Skye is uncomfortable about the source and masks the tip off as a vision.
But things get wildly out of control when Paige is found murdered and Skye is a prime suspect . . .

Reviews / Votes
I did enjoy this book. It had a few good twists and turns and an ending that I didn't expect. I'll certainly look out for more books by this author * Miss Chapter Reviews * An enjoyable read, which definitely took me to places I didn't expect. * Armadillo Magazine * It was quite a tense and fast paced plot, and very well written. The last few sort of twists were pretty damn good, and I liked the way it all wrapped up and concluded * Sunset Cocktail * I loved this character so much , she is a total breath of fresh air , an inspiration and we could all do with taking a lesson from her . I recommend this for every single person * Edel's Book Blog *More details
