A Shimmer of Red

Odessa’s psychic gifts (divining a person’s emotions by seeing colored glimmers around their head, and sensing and smelling things that others can’t) are a creative plot device. Her aunts add humor to the mystery, and it’s good to see characters from the previous novels return. Recommend to fans of paranormal cozies and culinary mysteries.
