Weird & Wonderful Wednesday

Julia is a psychic who is a student at an elite institute for psychics, but, she is driven away from the Institute of Integrated Parapsychology because the woman she thought was her mentor basically psychically attacks her with something from her past (wayy past). Julia winds up in Manhattan, retreating just a bit. But, soon enough she’s back in the psychic game, helping try and track down a missing person who may actually have a connection with Julia’s mother.

There’s definitely a bunch of different stuff going on in this novel. There’s the mother/daughter stuff, and missing artist, and, there’s a lot of stuff in regards the psychic part. Both using it for good, as well as seeing a facility where people can go to recover from psychic attacks. It was a complex, but fun read.

"Her body registered cures as invaders, as an enemy to defeat. At some point there would be no more cures. Her body would be too familiar, or would know too much."
