In Victoria Laurie’s latest Psychic Eye Mystery, Abby Cooper learns that following the money often leads to murder....   When Abby is sent to Los Angeles to help train FBI officers to use their intuition, she encounters a case that only she can solve: a series of bank robberies in which the thieves made off with loads of cash but left no clues. Abby’s sixth sense leads her team to a tract of land recently cleared for development, where she gets a vision of four buried bodies. However, a site search turns up only ancient bones and pottery from an American Indian tribe, which is enough to delay construction for years.   With a furious developer and dubious FBI agents on her back, Abby is losing credibility fast. But Abby’s talent rarely leads her astray, and if the bodies aren’t there yet, that means four deaths can still be stopped. She’ll just have to dig a little deeper....

She lives in suburban Michigan. Chapter One The thing I hate about the future is that it's so freaking unpredictable. I know, I know-that's not something you usually hear from a psychic. I get it. But it's a fact. Yep. It's a stinky, irritating, frustrating, annoying fact that the future is far less predictable than even I like to admit. Still, as much as I may whine about how hard it is to nail down what's coming up in the next few months for a client, it's always supercool when something that I say will happen . . . actually does. I suspect that the reason the future is so nebulous-even for those of us well practiced at predicting it-is that destiny itself isn't a thing that's set in stone, and on some levels, that's pretty counterintuitive. I know that most people who believe in psychic ability might think the future itself is a direct path forward-like a paved road. The truth is that the future looks and feels a bit more like a flowing river with lots of twists and turns, surprise tributaries, calming pools, a few beaver dams, and even some waterfalls. All that energy hinders our innate intuitive ability to predict it with a hundred percent accuracy, and sometimes even telling people what their future holds allows them to change it on the spot, much like paddling a little more on the left will steer your canoe to the right. The fact that the future is so malleable is, quite frankly, why I perform readings in the first place. I like to think that I'm allowing people to make informed decisions about what's coming up and am giving them the opportunity to alter course if they'd like. Sometimes a course can't really be altered very much, if at all, and I have no idea why there are such distinct exceptions to the rule. Some destinies are simply set, and there's no opportunity to alter the outcome. That's the part that's most frustrating-when I get the rare client who seems to be set for an end that has no alternative. It's even more frustrating when it happens on a case I'm working. Yeah, that's the part I haven't mentioned yet-along with doing private sessions for clients, I also do a little consulting work for the Austin FBI cold-case division. My work with them is strictly on the down-low-I mean, can you imagine if it got out that the FBI had a psychic on the books? There'd be mayhem. Madness. Governments would topple, heads would roll, chaos would reign, villages would be pillaged, and innocents everywhere would suffer. . . . That enough sarcasm for you? Good. It's pretty eye-roll worthy for me too. Anyway, as I was saying, most cases I work on, we get results. I wouldn't say in any way that I'm solely responsible for solving the various cold cases that come our way (we've got some amazing agents on our team), but I would (proudly) declare that I'm a valuable asset, and I do contribute to the investigations. We have a great track record, so the results speak for themselves. In fact, it's those results that led me to my earlier comment on being frustrated when nothing I seem to say or do alters an outcome. You see, it was because of those stats that I was asked to an early January morning meeting with my boss, Brice Harrison. Brice is n
