Kay Hooper books are all very entertaining and fan's of this author know to come to her Bishop/SCU reads with an open mind, and a fair bit of imagination. These are reads where anything goes, and usually does. So keeping that in mind, readers should truly enjoy this fast-paced read.

Quentin Hayes works in Bishop's Special Crimes Unit but every year he has returned to "The Lodge" in order to solve the murder of a childhood friend. Every year he comes away with nothing. This year though, things will be much different because there is someone there that will be able to help him, but first he must convince her that she's not mentally insane, but instead a medium with unheard of power.

Diana Bisco has spent the better part of her life medicated by doctors trying to keep her safe and sane. But Diana is done with the med's and decides on a different course of treatment. She takes an art class at "The Lodge" but this hotel is not what it seems and when she starts seeing dead people she rethinks her mental illness, that is until she meets Quentin. Quentin is going to become very important to her survival if she is going to help those that wander "The Lodge" find peace. Oh, and she must do this before a killer strikes again.

This is truly more of a paranormal/suspense read than a romance read. So those that are looking for an indepth romance read might want to look else where. Otherwise the reader is in for a real treat. Ms. Hooper has combined a great deal into this read but it's all very good. I love her "Bishop" novel's and I look forward to her next effort.
