What’s Next for Sunshine Meadows
the Fortune Teller?
the Fortune Teller?
I just love writing cozy mysteries. And writing paranormal cozy mysteries is even more fun. My main character Sunny is psychic. The ancient Victorian house she lives in is spooky, so everyone in town thinks it’s haunted. But Sunny suspects the big, white cat living there when she moved in is the one doing the haunting. She names him Morty, short for immortal because she never sees him eat or sleep, his eyes are black, and he moves at lightning speed. Mysterious things seem to happen whenever he is around. :-)
It has been a blast to research different fortune-telling tools and have each book focus on one specific tool. So far we have done:
- TEMPEST IN THE TEA LEAVES (tea leaf reading)
- CORPSE IN THE CRYSTAL BALL (crystal ball reading)
- TROUBLE IN THE TAROT (tarot card reading)
- PERIL IN THE PALM (palm reading)
- HAZARD IN THE HOROSCOPE (horoscope analysis)
- MURDER IN THE MEDITATIONS (meditation revelations)
- SECRETS IN THE STARS (reading astrology charts)
- DANGER IN THE DREAMS (dream analysis)
- PERP IN THE PENDULUM (pendulum readings)
- PITFALLS IN THE PAST (past life reading)
- SIN IN THE SIGNS (sun sign readings)
- NIGHTMARE IN THE NUMBERS (numerology readings)
- CRIME IN THE COLORS (color analysis)
- SOULS IN THE SÉANCE (séance session)
- FEAR IN THE FENG SHUI (feng shui analysis)
- TERROR IN THE TALISMAN (talisman readings)
- CHILLS IN THE CHARMS (charm readings)
- SUSPECTS IN THE SPIRITS (spirit guide analysis)
- ALARM IN THE AURA (aura analysis)
TROUBLE IN THE TAROT
A Fortune Teller Mystery
Book Three
For psychic Sunshine Meadows, sometimes fortunes can be deceiving...
Lately Sunny has been experiencing a period of big opportunity: her business in Divinity, New York, is thriving, and Detective Mitch Stone has finally agreed to take Sunny on a date. But thanks to her clairvoyant abilities, Sunny knows better than anyone that life deals out bad cards along with the good.
When Sunny agrees to read tarot cards at the annual summer Solstice Carnival, she meets her Granny Gert’s “arch nemesis” Fiona Atwater, and is overcome by a vision of Fiona in a violent argument. Sunny knows trouble is brewing when Granny and Fiona start having squabbles all over town. But the fighting comes to a head when a local baker gets run over by a big white Cadillac—and Granny and Fiona are found at the crime scene.
Sunny knows she should step aside and let Mitch handle the investigating, but she’s not about to ignore her visions and leave her granny’s life in fate’s hands...

Thanks for having me here today. Good luck on winning the giveaway. Can't wait to hear what you all think about Sunny and her latest adventure.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, Kari! I'm intrigued by the whole list of possible fortune-telling tools. I think my two favorites are dream analysis and a séance session. I'm looking forward to more from Sunny!
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed the first book in this series despite some preposterous sleuthing by Sunny.
ReplyDeleteI always like a good book with a creepy seance scene.
Thanks for the fun post and congrats to Kari on the new release! I've always thought that the tarot cards were interesting and I'd love to see their use explored more in detail.
ReplyDeletePalm reading? How many more ways are there?
ReplyDeleteI am still interested reading tea leaves. Would like to have another mystery with that theme. My grandmother read tea leaves! I keep wondering who she learned from.

I just love those titles :D That is so cool
ReplyDeleteI would probably have to say a seance session. Thanks for this awesome giveaway!!!
ReplyDeleteWow, that are more things than I knew excisted. Color reading? Talisman or Charm readings? I just want to read all those books, so you go on and write them. But the one most intriguing is the aura reading.
ReplyDeleteThis series sounds great. The tarot, astrology charts and Chinese astrology have always interested me. Great post and giveaway!
ReplyDeleteI think maybe something about crystals or runes would be interesting!

I just finished the first book last night and I loved it, can't wait to pick up the rest. It looks like you have pretty much covered all the different aspects of fortune telling.
ReplyDeleteMy grandmother used to check out the tea leaves!
ReplyDeleteWhat about a Wiji Board?
