exciting amateur sleuth tale

To please her friend, Kate McGuire agrees to partake in a parapsychology study at the local university in the Piedmont area of South Carolina. Nobody is more shocked than Kate is when she touches a headband and receives visions of a woman being strangled by a powerful man. The professor conducting the study tells her that the headband belongs to a woman that has been missing for a few days.When the police find the body in a place that is exactly like Kate described reporter John Gerrard prints the story and includes the psychic's name. The killer reads the paper and decides to kill Kate before she can reveal his identity. John who has come to care for Kate, tries to protect her but the killer is determined that nobody gets in his way.HAUNTING REFRAIN is an exciting amateur sleuth tale starring a reluctant psychic who sees her gift as a curse that frightens her. This weakness endears her to the audience because they can empathize with the heroine. The protagonist's romance with the reporter is a clever plot device that eases the level of tension caused by the killer's attacks. Ellis Vidler is a gifted storyteller who deserves a large following for her wonderful romantic mysteries like this one.Harriet Klausner

Ellis Vidler-A new Star

I have just recently read this book, and was truly delighted with it. It has a little bit of everything mystery,woo-woo, romance which is not overdone. I will come back for all the Ellis Vidler books.

Summer is coming

This book is just in time for vacation. Good entertainment especially if you are a bit interested in those who have special senses. Kate, the main character, "sees" things happen to people she doesn't know. Mix up a bit of murder, mystery and romance and you have a good read!
