Book Reviews of Doom with a View (Psychic Eye Mysteries, Book 7)Book Review: Ms. Laurie takes Abby Cooper to a new level! Summary: 5 Stars
I have been a great fan of the Abby Cooper series, and everything else author Victoria Laurie has written. She is not only a talented author, she is a gifted psychic and a wonderfully nice lady. She also had dogs and a parrot, and that alone makes her a BFF with me -
The Abby Cooper Psychic Eye Mystery series has been about a young psychic, Abby Cooper, who lives in the Detroit area, and makes her living as a psychic. She also gets involved in adventures and found a wonderful boyfriend, Dutch, an FBI agent, a handyman, Dave, who seems to always be fixing things, a rich sister and lots of material to make great fodder for adventures.
Ms. Laurie uses her own experiences as a psychic not only to give life to Abby, but uses her knowledge to help us, the lay people, understand what it is to be a psychic and the process one uses to communicate with the 'Crew' of guides to help folks.
She has also blossomed to a Ghost Hunters Mystery series, and has a wonderful hardback novel Oracles of Delphi Keep, which is aimed for those of us who are Harry Potter fanatics - in other words, aimed for kids of all ages who love magic, adventure, and imaginative happenings!
But I digress!
Doom With a View is the best of the Abby Cooper series and Ms. Laurie has taken the present day economy and mixes that in the story.
Abby has been asked by the FBI to give them help with a missing persons case, and Abby agrees. She and Candace, her great friend, business partner and PI with an attitude, proceed to the FBI and try to prove to Fibbie skeptic Brice Harrison that Abby's the real deal.
The old favorites, Dutch, Dave, and the pups are also there, but this is a tour de force for Abby and Candace. Candace and Harrison seem to butt heads more than they should, but it seems there may be more to Harrison than meets the eye - oh and he's cute too!
Ms. Laurie makes a bold move with all of her beloved characters at the end of the book, and that opens up a whole new world for all the characters. The economy in Detroit is especially bad, and Laurie takes the gang to an area that is not only necessary for the characters' jobs, but one that Ms. Lauries knows well.
Doom With a View is a fun read that will keep you guessing until the last second, exciting, and romantic as usual.
Victoria Laurie has always been an author to watch, so if you have not read her books yet, time to get caught up and join the fun.
She writes with an elegant ease that puts you firmly in the action.
An excellent read.
