A recently divorced woman lived in the house she inherited from her beloved aunt. Her aunt was a psychic who worked with the Boston Police to solve crimes. Regina (Reggie) has inherited her aunt's abilities and is just beginning to build a similar relationship with the police. While walking the dog she inherited with the house, she is struck by a car. Stephen, the nice young man who has rented the upstairs apartment in her building since before her aunt's death, comes to her rescue. He sits talking with her while she recovers from this scare. During their conversation, he mentions that he and Reggie's aunt were working on a deal together.

That night, Stephen is murdered. Reggie's door is marked with Stephen's blood with what appears to be Chinese characters. Reggie picks up messages from Stephen's possessions and trys to tell the detective assigned to the case, but he makes it clear that he not only doesn't believe in Reggie's abilities, he also sees her as a suspect in this crime.

Since her door was marked, Reggie believes she may be a target as well. Reggie begins to follow the clues, seeking the murderer on her own.

Fun, fast read with an interesting cast of characters. ( )
