In this thrilling new series from Rysa Walker, the award-winning and best-selling author of Timebound, a teen psychic is the key to stopping a government conspiracy.
It’s never wise to talk to strangers . . . and that goes double when they’re dead. Unfortunately, seventeen-year-old Anna Morgan has no choice. Resting on a park bench, touching the turnstile at the Metro station—she never knows where she’ll encounter a ghost. These mental hitchhikers are the reason Anna has been tossed from one foster home and psychiatric institution to the next for most of her life.
When a chance touch leads her to pick up the insistent spirit of a girl who was brutally murdered, Anna is pulled headlong into a deadly conspiracy that extends to the highest levels of government. Facing the forces behind her new hitcher’s death will challenge the barriers, both good and bad, that Anna has erected over the years and shed light on her power’s origins. And when the covert organization seeking to recruit her crosses the line by kidnapping her friend, it will discover just how far Anna is willing to go to bring it down.
My
Review:
Anna Morgan has bounced from one foster home to another
and group homes from time to time not to mention psychiatric institutions since
she was just a little girl. Anna was abandoned when she was a toddler with a
note saying she was possessed.
There were times when Anna and Deo ran away from the
places they were staying when things got rough. They stayed on the street until
they were found and sent back. Anna and Deo adopted each other as brother and
sister a long time ago. They both needed someone they could rely on and trust.
Anna and Deo have come to be as close as or closer than any brother or sister.
Each would give their own life if that is what it took to save the other.
Anna has a special ability where she picks up ghost or
hitchers as she calls them. If she brushes up against something say like a
chair where a ghost is hanging out Anna will pick them up. These ghosts usually
have some unfinished business they need to take care of before they move on and
Anna tries her best to help them.
Anna runs into a little trouble when she picks up a young
girl who was murdered and the killer(s) were never found. Molly wants Anna to
help her grandfather find her murderers so justices can be served. Molly
suffered through a lot before she died but that is her story to tell so I will
let her tell it.
Now Anna has some very nasty people after her because of
her abilities and because of what she knows about Molly’s murder. But Anna
picks up a lot of help and some new friends along the way. A friend of Molly’s a
guy that she had a crush on helps Anna and Deo when he finds out that Molly’s
killers are after her. There are a few sparks flying around when Anna and Aaron
are together.
I have really and truly loved reading Anna and Molly’s
story and you will too. Following along on their journey has been out of this
world amazing. Reading The Delphi Effect was like walking down a hall with lots
and lots of doors but you are only trying your best to get to the end of the
hall and you are creeping along when bam a door flies open and you are waiting
and waiting and waiting to see what is behind the door but you are stunned as
to what is waiting for you behind door number one or door number two…ect…ect..
Oh man and that ending just left me wanting more…more…more. I can’t wait to
read more about Anna, Aaron, Deo, Taylor and Daniel’s stories and about The
Delphi Effect as well. I know it will be another amazing walk down that
corridor.
Pick up your copy of The Delphi Effect today and let Anna
and Molly tell you their story.
