Divine Intervention 

by Cheryl Kaye Tardif

Category: Mystery, Crime, Science Fiction 

Description:

CFBI agent Jasmine McLellan is assigned a hot case-one that requires the psychic abilities of the PSI Division, a secret government agency located in the secluded town of Divine, BC.

Jasi leads a psychically gifted team in the hunt for a serial arsonist-a murderer who has already taken the lives of three innocent people. Unleashing her gift as a Pyro-Psychic, Jasi is compelled toward smoldering ashes and enters the killer's mind. A mind bent on destruction and revenge.

Jasi's team, consisting of Psychometric Empath and profiler, Ben Roberts, and Victim Empath, Natassia Prushenko, is led down a twisting path of dark, painful secrets. Brandon Walsh, the handsome, smooth-talking Chief of Arson Investigations joins them in a manhunt that takes them across British Columbia-from Vancouver to Kelowna, Penticton and Victoria.

While impatiently sifting through the clues that were left behind, Jasi and her team realize that there is more to the third victim than meets the eye. Perhaps not all of the victims were that innocent. The hunt intensifies when they learn that someone they know is next on the arsonist's list.

The case heats to the boiling point as Jasi steps out of the flames…and into the fire. And in the heat of early summer, Agent Jasi McLellan discovers that a murderer lies in wait…much closer than she imagined.

Reviews:

“Another wonderful Tardif Novel Shows Her Mastery of Any Genre. Tardif first enthralled me with Whale Song. What a magnificent transition she accomplishes here with Divine Intervention, a future-thriller, or speculative crime fiction, or sci-fi/mystery...As with her previous novel, I sense a potential movie here. Powerful, emotional, riveting, transcending genre. Which is a good thing, because here is a blend of speculative fiction and crime novel, although clearly more of the latter. Thumbs up and waiting for more from Cheryl Tardif.” ~ Derek Armstrong, author of the darkly humorous reality television mystery-thriller The Game (Kunati Books - www.kunati.com)

"Cheryl Tardif's first venture into the mystery thriller is fantastic. I rarely stray from traditional or genealogical mysteries but Divine Intervention was a pleasant diversion. In Divine Intervention, Tardif has created characters whose friendships and romances feel very genuine. She wastes little ink on descriptions that don't enhance the story, and the action right up to the very end is suspenseful." ~ Christine McCreedy, Christine's Book List

"Divine Intervention is a divine treasure! Cheryl Kaye Tardif's most recent novel is comparative to Nora Roberts' "In Death" series that is penned under the pseudonym of 'J.D. Robb'...hotter than a Florida heat wave. [Cheryl Kaye Tardif] takes you to a startling climax that will leave you suspended. The shocking twist at Divine Intervention's conclusion will rip your emotions bare as you enter the world of a serial arsonist bent on revenge...Cheryl Kaye Tardif is destined to be a great Canadian author--and is the new 'Canadian J.D. Robb'." ~ Melissa Teeq, an Amazon.ca reviewer

"Cheryl Kaye Tardif's hot futuristic thriller, Divine Intervention, radiates suspense and mystery...Tardif's passionate crime solvers are anything but ordinary...Tardif fuels her story with relentless pacing, marvelously cryptic clues, frequent surprises, and convincing details of criminal investigation and firefighting. The narrative temperature reaches feverish intensity when multiple conflicts threaten to ignite and obsessive attractions cloud rationality with sensual steam." ~ Jimmy Fox, author of genealogical mysteries
