Rise to Me

Psychic Surveys, Book 2

By: Shani Struthers

Narrated by: Sheila Dearden

From Shani Struthers, author of The Haunting of Highdown Hall.

"This isn't a ghost we're dealing with. If only it were that simple…."

Eighteen years ago, when psychic Ruby Davis was a child, her mother - also a psychic - suffered a nervous breakdown. Ruby was never told why. "It won't help you to know," was the only answer she was ever given. Fast forward to the present and Ruby is earning a living from her gift, running a high street consultancy - Psychic Surveys - specialising in domestic spiritual clearance.

Boasting a strong track record, business is booming. Dealing with spirits has become routine, but there is more to the paranormal than even Ruby can imagine. Someone - something - stalks her, terrifying but also strangely familiar. Hiding in the shadows, it is fast becoming bolder. The only way to fight it is for the past to be revealed, no matter what the danger.

When you can see the light, you can see the darkness, too. And - sometimes - the darkness can see you.

Love these books by Shank Stuthers

Fun cast of characters, great plot with suspense. Can't wait to read more of her books!

I love this series!

The reader cannot help but to become caught up with the characters and stories. This is a great, thoughtful series. The narrator does an excellent job.

A Little Scary but entertaining

I must confess that it got me a little scared but I enjoyed the book. Perfect for Halloween. The story is something new and it seems like the main problem of that family is the lack of communication. Good that at the end they work together to overcome the danger they were facing.

Absolutely terrific.

Loved this story. Beautifully written and narrated. Your writing is superb. On to the next one. Looking forward to it.

Worth the listen

The story was very good, though there were times it seemed to lose itself in the passage of time. Shani Struthers writes a good paranormal story that seems to have been well researched and well thought out.

The performance though for this book was rather annoying. There were times the audio became soft, as if the narrator didn't have her setup done properly and she leaned away from the microphone. other times, she seemed to have her mouth right on the microphone and was too loud. Sheila Dearden also made the main character very high pitchy and annoyingly childish this book.

The first book in the series was very well done, and was the whole reason I purchased the following books. But if I had listened to this one first, I would not have continued with how the narrator made Ruby and Carina sound almost exactly the same. Ruby sounded like she was 12, not an adult of 25. I hope the other books are more like the first one.

found me a new author...narrator was wonderful...

narrator was wonderful ..the story line has just got better. can't wait for the next one.

lover her books

I really love her books and I'm going to continue reading as many as she writes

AMAZING 2nd novel in the series!!

I really liked the first novel in this series!. BUT THIS- the entire book with its main story and sub-stories, made for a constant tension of horror throughout. for any of potential readers of this novel, after the first one being more of a slow burn before the fireworks, this one has landmines and pipebombs that literally explode when you least expect it. I remember thinking , when there was STILL 5 more hours left, "are you KIDDING ME? so much had happened WHAT ELSE.does this story hold and HOW will this resolve???" All the "light and love" safety of the first book evaporates and you are left wondering "what new dark entities are we dealing with?" you literally don't know what the answers are till the very end. this is MUCH heavier and more gritty than novel #1. I think, where the first one set the stage for the characters and the premise or "mission" behind Ruby's company, this one was a full blown performance. I don't want to forget to mention the wonderful narrator. she is an amazing Voice Actor. such a great job defining the characters by tempo and tone.she gave each one the depth they deserve. loved this!! can't wait to start book 3 and a new adventure for these Psychic Surveyors!

Boring....

So, I have been dragging myself through this book... I am 1/2 way though this book and its no better... at this point I give up. I won't read another in this series... The book just drones on and on...I am not even sure what the point is of the story. The narrator could put me to sleep... I was very disappointed.
