The latest novel in a thrilling cozy mystery series featuring Odessa Jones-a sudden widow juggling a promising catering business, a full-time real estate gig-and a psychic gift that leads her to solve mysteries whenever they appear to her-which is often. From the award-winning creator of Newark private eye Tamara Hayle, will appeal to fans of cozy mysteries and multicultural fiction.
With pandemic-fearing city dwellers fleeing to the New Jersey suburbs, Risko Realty-and Odessa Jones-are having their best year ever. Finally on solid financial footing, Odessa is debt-free and looking forward to the future. But she doesn't need second sight to sense her new young co-worker, Anna Lee, is on edge--and straight-up terrified--in spite of her hot sales record and sunny, outgoing attitude. And when Anna is killed in a hit-and-run, Odessa sees immediately that it was no accident . . .
