About this listen

Medium and clairvoyant Simon Kincaide owns a Myrtle Beach boardwalk shop where he runs ghost tours, holds seances, and offers private psychic readings, making a fresh start after his abilities cost him his lover and his job as a folklore professor.

Jaded cop Vic D'Amato saw something supernatural he couldn't explain during a shootout several years ago in Pittsburgh and relocated to Myrtle Beach to leave the past behind, still skeptical about the paranormal. But when the search for a serial killer hits a dead end, Vic battles his skepticism to ask Simon for help.

As the body count rises, Simon's involvement makes him a target and a suspect. But Simon can't say no, even if it costs him his life and heart.

Interesting but crass

The interpersonal relationships between all characters was fascinating. I hope the next chapters of the series embellishes on them. Sadly tho, the tenderness between Simon and Vic was ruined by the crassness of their mating moments. These scenes were crass, bordering on vulgar and to be honest rather juvenile for mod 30s men, even to the last sentence of the book. Disappointing but the rest of the story is quite captivating.

Compelling supernatural mystery, nice romance!

Det Vic D’Amato doesn’t want to get entangled with psychics again after getting burnt when a supernatural murder took place a few years ago, so he’s reluctant to trust Simon Kincaide a well-known local Myrtle Beach medium and clairvoyant. But when a serial killer, known horrifically as The Slitter, starts killing local mediums, it’s a race against time to catch him and Vic will need Simon’s considerable expertise. I liked that the romance didn’t overpower the mystery / action here, both got equal time. I enjoyed Kale Williams’ smooth audio narration although I found it hard to distinguish between his voicing of the two leads. All-in-all, a promising start to a new SNR series (the first few are currently free on the Audible Plus catalogue)!

Badlands but good listen!

Great start to the series, Enjoyed the storyline and the sort of sceptic sort of belief Vic had for Simons talents. Simon has an interesting set of friends who I hope we hear more from in future books.

👮‍♂️👬Vic & Simon 👬👻

Morgan Brice, this is the first book I have read of yours, & you have me enthralled. 📚
I won't go into complex detail as the blurbs above. 📖
Absolutely loved Simon & his inner circle of friends plus the skeleton group. Plus, I love a hot neird!, Vic a gruff hot tattooed cop what more do you want put them together & boom perfection. You know what they say about opposites. 👬❤️‍🔥
The clairvoyance & magic were just the right amount to pull you through to the end. 🔮✨
I highly recommend this book & can't wait to continue with the series. 📚📖
Again, great work, Morgan
