In the plodding first of a new psychic crime fighter trilogy from bestseller Hooper (Sleeping with Fear
), Noah Bishop of the FBI’s Special Crimes Unit is now supervising an all-female team of civilian contractors known as Haven. Together, they track a serial killer who has moved his maniacal atrocities from Boston to a small town outside Atlanta, where he continues to kidnap, torture and kill women. Psychic Dani Justice, who can often predict the future through her dreams, becomes obsessed with the case. The investigation of the crimes gets lost amid lots of psychic babble by members of Haven, hand-wringing by the local police, and frequent snapshots of the killer with his victims. An abrupt ending doesn’t deliver on any of the trauma and drama that Justice’s dreams have predicted, though presumably readers will get satisfaction on that score in the next entry in the series.
