About this listen

“Delightful.” (The New York Times Book Review)

A psychic travel agent and a Seattle PD detective solve a murder in this quirky mystery in the vein of Lisa Lutz’s The Spellman Files and Charlaine Harris’s Aurora Teagarden series.

Meet Leda Foley: devoted friend, struggling travel agent, and inconsistent psychic. When Leda, sole proprietor of Foley's Flights of Fancy, impulsively re-books Seattle PD detective Grady Merritt’s flight, her life changes in ways she couldn’t have predicted.

After watching his original plane blow up from the safety of the airport, Grady realizes that Leda’s special abilities could help him with a cold case he just can’t crack.

Despite her scattershot premonitions, she agrees for a secret reason: Her fiancé’s murder remains unsolved. Leda’s psychic abilities couldn’t help the case several years before, but she’s been honing her skills and drawing a crowd at her favorite bar’s open-mic nights, where she performs Klairvoyant Karaoke — singing whatever song comes to mind when she holds people’s personal effects. Now joined by a rag-tag group of bar patrons and pals alike, Leda and Grady set out to catch a killer — and learn how the two cases that haunt them have more in common than they ever suspected.

I originally got this to see if it was a good comp for my current WIP. It didn’t quite work for what I was looking for, but it was still great! She really nailed the amateur sleuth storyline! Definitely looking forward to the next one!

I loved it

The narrator did pronounce some of the words incorrectly but it didn’t ruin the story for me. The story was interesting and did not lag at all.

Good quick listen

This was a fun story with an interesting premise. Not a typical psychic tale. Nice use of Seattle as a backdrop and to support the story.

Fun Story

I liked the characters and the writing, but I didn’t really care about the case, unfortunately. Found it a little boring, but of course that is entirely subjective and I’m sure many people will love it.

Wish the mystery was more compelling

story had alot of potential. the 'ol psychic helps police story. but there was no action. no real drama. just a straight forward predictable plot. the tiny bit of action was anticlimactic. sorry.

it was OK

One of the most gifted writers you will ever encounter. Everything from Gothic horror to rollicking, steam, punk, and everything in between. Cherie has put out yet another amazing book. Highly recommend.

Another exceptional book from Cherie Priest

This was an ok book, but it was hard to follow when so many new characters were introduced. I kept listening because I wanted to find out “who done it.” But I wouldn’t waste a credit if you have something better to listen to!
The narrator’s voice was flat and although she tried to change it for different characters- she didn’t alter her voice that much. Not a lot of suspense in this book either.
I’m debating whether or not to listen to the 2nd book in the series.

Ok, but not great

A light, funny take on an accidental psychic detective. Technically, a travel agent, our heroine stumbles into helping a detective solve a murder (or2 or 3). The characters are fun, the Seattle backdrop is solid. The main characters were well fleshed out, a couple of red herrings to keep us guessing, and the karaoke scenes were a blast.

Quirky, clever Psychic detective story

The story started slow as the characters and premise were introduced. But by the end you love all the characters. I’ll stick with the series.

Started slow, but picked up speed
