My Review:-😎🏖 This is Book One in 'A detective Grace McKenna Scottish Murder Mystery.'

We meet Ex Detective Inspector Grace McKenna, who's live hasn't been easy over the past few years, but things are going to get better. Grace is a strong women and now owner and running Portobella Detective Agency below the flat she shares with Harvey, her golden retriever dog. Grace is asked for help from the widow of Psychic Paul Gordon to find out what happened. This could be just what she needs. With the help from Hannah and Jean her assistants and also Tobias Sloan an investigative reporter, who also wants answers about his wife death, they start asking questions. 

 What has Merchiston College of Psychic Studies got to do with it? Are these deaths linked? There are plenty of twists in the two cases, 

I enjoyed the storyline and the writing style of the author.
