The return of Kevin’s ex-fiancé, Ann, puts a stop to Dae’s romance. The murder of Chuck Sparks and the kidnapping of his daughter, Betsy, brings in the FBI. It also leads to an expansion of her powers and Ann may be the only one who can teach her about them…. ( )

A Haunting Dream is the fourth book in the A Missing Pieces Mystery series. Another wonderful addition I might add.

Life for Dae O'Donnell has been turned upside down with the appearance of Ann Porter in Duck, NC. Ann is Kevin's former FBI partner and had been his fiancee'. Dae is understanding wants to give Kevin time to decide which way he wants to go.

This came at the time when Dae's neighbor Mac Sweeney asks for her help in finding a gold medallion that he found in a parking lot and that he can't now find. He needs to find it, as there is a reward being offered. When Dae gets a vision where the medallion is, she knows the medallion, as she once found it and returned it to it's owner, Chuck Sparks. A man name Derek is claiming it is his, but when Dae holds the medallion, she gets a vision of Sparks being killed and in the vision Sparks says: save her. Soon, Dae finds Sparks body in ditch. Then in a dream Dae is sure that Sparks' "help her" request is for his daughter that has gone missing.

The FBI has entered the picture and with Ann being there and having experience locating lost children with her psychic abilities, is asked to help. But she has a feeling the little girl is dead, but Dae doesn't. Dae has a couple customers come to her store, Missing Pieces, and she suspects that they might somehow be involved in the shooting and disappearance of the little girl.

In addition to another murder in her little community, Dae also has to contend with Randal "Mad Dog" Wilson who is running for mayor against Dae.

Looking forward to the next book to see if Kevin has reached a decision and to see how the election for mayor turns out. ( )

I like the main character, although sometimes the plot can be a little hole-y. But they are enjoyable. ( )

Really good story about not only a murder that Dae sees when she touches an object, but also a missing girl. The release of her boyfriends ex-fiance from a psychiatric facility adds a dimension of awkwardness, but also another psychic from which Dae can learn a bit more about her gifts and their evolution.

I'm not sure if they murderer is supposed to be a giant surprise or not - it wasn't obvious to me, but the reveal didn't surprise me either. This book had quite a bit of action for a cozy and the pace felt quick. Dae's family dynamics are complicated and I think the author is trying to paint her grandfather as crusty, but loveable - all I get is a cantankerous, judgemental old man.

I solid series and I'm looking forward to seeing where the next book goes... ( )
