Shadow’s Edge (Psychic Detective Mysteries, 1)

S.C. Wynne writes a good story. This is a fairly gruesome tale, if familiar in the world of detective fiction. Psychic Liam Baker works as a consultant to the LAPD, helping out detective Kimball Thompson—known mostly as Thompson throughout the book. Young male hustlers with slit throats are turning up, and Liam’s gift helps him speak to the spirits of the victims. The complication here is that Liam’s beloved William was a close friend of Thompson’s, and a cop as well. William is dead, and Liam is channeling his grief through his work with Thompson.

The murder mystery is filled with tension, and so is the relationship between Liam and Thompson. Liam is faced with two challenges: find the killer before it’s too late, and confront his own emotions before they destroy his life.

A page-turner that intrigued me enough that I’ve already gotten book 2 in the series.
