Helpful Score: 1
A very good read. Keeps you turning the pages. Has a bit of a Sci-Fi twist to it.
Mira Morales is a psychic and she gets pulled into a murder investigation by the abduction of her daughter. Set in the Florida keys.
I enjoyed this book very much!
GOOD BOOK. SHOWS INSIGHT INTO THE MIND OF A MADMAN.
I always look forward to any new T.G.MacGregor. This isn't new ; but it's good.On the back cover; For years, children have been disappearing without a trace in the Florida Keys. And no one, not even the FBI, has suspected that it could be the work of a single twisted psychopath. Now, with her daughter gone--abducted by a killer consumed by a desire to change his past and his future--one mother will do whatever it takes to find her child, even if it means following her through the darkest passages of the unknown, to a place where each choice has terrifying consequences no one can possibly forsee. I really liked this book; one of those you don't want to put down.
This book is riveting!!
From Publishers Weekly
Fans of the Twilight Zone should relish MacGregor's newest offering (after Out of Sight); reading this spine-tingling suspense novel is like spiraling headfirst into the most disturbing episode ever aired. As Mira Morales and her teenage daughter, Annie, prepare to return via motorboat to their home in the Florida Keys, Mira is knocked unconscious and Annie is kidnapped. After regaining consciousness, the psychic Mira tries to locate her daughter, but when her boat glides through Florida's "black water," she travels back in time to 1968. Meanwhile, Annie's kidnapper, the germaphobic Patrick Wheaton, drags her through the same "corridor." Through the investigative work of FBI agent Wayne Sheppard and the psychic bond that Mira and her grandmother Nadine share, the reasons behind Wheaton's actions unfold, and the story becomes even more unsettling. The constant shift between the past and present may confuse readers, especially as events unfolding in the past begin to affect the present. Though some may find the book's paranormal elements hard to swallow, MacGregor skillfully builds the tension to a heart-pounding conclusion.

strong storyline. Highly recommended.
Even though the premise, time travel, is just a tad outlandish, the book keeps your interest and is hard to put down. MacGregor writes about occult subjects and makes them believable!
2nd in the series. Very good with a lot of twists and turns. Psychic and FBI agent solves the mystery of missing children especially the Psychic's daughter.
This is the first T.J. MacGregor book I've read, but it certainly won't be the last. Plot twists and turns, things that are and then aren't, red herrings swimming everywhere...
