Unleashed 1:A Life and Death Job by Ali Sparkes
3.0
This is a pretty good continuation of the Shapeshifter series. We focus on Lisa, Cola Clubs most powerful psychic, as the spirit world derails her holiday and sends her to rescue a kidnapped girl and perhaps prevent the assassination of the PM. An engaging read, with one real downside: the burgeoning romance between Lisa (14-15) and a 21-year-old.
SPOILERS: Both psychics, they share an understanding of how difficult Lisa's life is and likely will continue to be, but their age gap makes it unnerving rather than a moment of real connection. It's uncomfortable throughout (Lisa continually thinks about how he considers her and reads that he finds her attractive) but culminates in a kiss that is supposed to be a moving moment of understanding between them and instead cements their relationship as the wrong side of creepy.
