Cree Blue Psychic Eye Mystery Series Reviewed

Cozy Mystery Series With A Paranormal Flair

Recently I began a mystery series: the Cree Blue Psychic Eye Mystery books. I would like to give you a little review this morning. Most of our regular readers are aware that I love a good mystery book and that I am partial to the Cozy Mystery genre. I began writing my own cozy series last year so I am a bit partial to the genre.

This series caught my eye as I scrolled through my choices of options for a new series to read. First of all it is a set of cozy mysteries so, it won't be too graphic on the murder details and then the touch of paranormal intrigued my brain. The thought of a sleuth that had psychic abilities seemed interesting and just a tad different. I like different!

Well, I am here to tell you that I am not disappointed in clicking the buy it button for the first book! Kate Allenton, the author, has not made me regret my choice. Her premise for the setting and characters are fun to read. Cree Blue is witty, smart and a little bit on the sassy side. She is a modern southern belle who just happens to have the ability to "see things" whether she wants to or not. She would also just as soon that people not know about her gifts. She uses her unusual ability to see beyond the veil to help solve cold case crimes, not for money or fame but because she wants to help the victims and to get the justice their lives deserved.

Cree Blue has made me laugh several times with her witty comebacks and her descriptions of people and events. There were also times I found myself thinking, "You go, girl!". She is quite an enjoyable little sleuth to get to know as I turn the pages.

Because these are cozies there are not things within the plot that are super gory, no frightening spirits or explicit sex scenes. The couple of ghosts that show up in the first book are friendly and helpful sorts. They won't make you scream and throw down your book! There is a bit of a romantic attraction but not in a way that will make your cheeks turn scarlet.

If you like a well written mystery, the kind that keeps you guessing; then I think you will enjoy the Cree Blue Psychic Eye series as much as I am. They are not tomes so they don't take an extremely long time to read. I think that if you give the first book a chance, you too will become a fan of this female sleuth who has psychic abilities.

  2. Sounds like the perfect book series to add to my Kindle! I think I will also enjoy the combination sleuth and psychic. That would certainly be a helpful gift to have when solving crimes. Thanks for the recommendation!

  3. What a fun review, Beverly. You know I love detective and/or mystery stories and I am a fan of another author who writes about a group of FBI agents who use their paranormal gifts to help solve crimes. So I can see an attraction to this Cree Blue Psychic Eye series already.

    Between the name of the main character, your description of her as a 'sassy', modern southern belle, and the hint of the paranormal, my first thought was that this series of stories takes place in New Orleans. Just sounds like a place it all fits. :) Am I right, or will I need to read them to know? Good book review, Bev.

  4. Sounds like a fun series. I enjoy a bit of sass and wit when it comes to sleuths (Kinsey Millhone comes to mind). Thanks for the introduction. Isn't it wonderful to find a new series to enjoy for many weeks to come? I love the anticipation.
