Ice Valley. Hunter Valley Mystery Series, #1

Her psychic visions could solve a cold case, or they could get her killed. Pip Mason has spent her life trying not to stand out. As a neurodiverse woman living with Tourette's, she knows how quickly people label her unstable, loud, or unpredictable. The last thing she wants is attention - especially for the quiet visions she's only just beginning to understand. But while staying at Ruth's Cottage in Australia's Hunter Valley, Pip experiences a subtle yet undeniable knowing - a clue connected to the woman who disappeared from the property years earlier. Ruth was never found. And Detective Bill Browne was on the original search team. As Pip cautiously explores what happened, her growing psychic abilities - inherited from her grandmother, abilities that she's not sure she wants to acknowledge - begin revealing connections others missed.
What starts as curiosity soon uncovers a hidden 'ice' drug operation being run beneath the surface of the valley. Ruth saw something she shouldn't have. Now, Pip may have seen it too. The deeper she digs, the harder it becomes to stay invisible. If she speaks up, she risks being dismissed as unstable. If she stays silent, she could share Ruth's fate. Ice Valley is Book One in the Hunter Valley Mystery series. Perfect for readers who love:  Psychic crime mysteries.
