Introducing a heroine unlike any other . . .
FBI Agent Bernadette Saint Clare’s gift of second sight allows her to see things others can’t. But some things are better left unseen . . .
The FBI has never known quite what to do with Agent Bernadette Saint Clare. Shortly after she’s placed at a desk in the basement of the off-site St. Paul office, bodies begin to appear along the sandy banks of the Mississippi. Soon she’s called on to do what she does best: use the personal effects found at a crime scene to see through a killer’s eyes.
The agent in charge of this case, Tony Garcia, is unsure if he should follow her lead, and the tension between them makes for an uneasy alliance. Complicating matters still further, Bernadette becomes involved with her new neighbor.
An absorbing novel filled with quirky characters on the right and wrong sides of the law, Blind Spot reminds us that life is filled with leaps of faith both great and small.

      FBI Agent Bernadette St. Clair has second sight AND a lover who turns out to be a ghost. As if this weren't enough, she's assigned to catch a serial killer who has left bodies all over St. Paul. Suspense is the key thing here--the killer's identity and motives are no mystery, but how are Bernadette and her partner going to catch this fiend? Coleen Marlo shines at the suspenseful scenes. She supplies action words with energy and tender moments with softness. The final scene with her ghostly lover serves not only as relief from the tense capture, but also shows Bernadette's lighter side. J.B.G. (c) AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine

      In this humdrum thriller with ghostly undercurrents, the first of a new series, Persons uses an old plot idea: endowing her female FBI agent with the power to see through the eyes of a serial killer as he goes about his nefarious business. Agent Bernadette Saint Clare has been kicking around field offices all over the United States when she shows up for her new assignment in St. Paul, hoping that her unusual vision and strange ability will be more welcome than they usually are to both her bosses and her fellow agents. She immediately draws a case involving bodies bound with unusual knots and each missing a right hand. A ring found at one of the sites leads her into the eyes of the killer, but his identity and motives remain unclear. Because Bernadette makes wrong choices, she struggles to understand what the reader has long figured out, missing golden opportunities to catch her man and often placing herself in mortal danger. In future installments, Persons would do well to develop her heroine's ordinary crime-busting skills.

      Narrator Coleen Marlo captures the enigmatic personality of FBI Agent Bernadette Saint Claire with a subtle but authoritative voice as Saint Claire uses "second sight" to learn about recent murders along the Mississippi River. Marlo matches voice to mood, using hesitancy and understatement to depict her relationship with the agent in charge, Tony Garcia, who cautiously accepts his new alliance with Saint Claire but fears for his career because of her unorthodox skills. Marlo skillfully builds tension as Saint Claire handles victims' personal effects to see each death through the killer's eyes. With a vocal pace that matches the increasing intensity, she also experiences the victims' terror. The narration builds as the chase intensifies. G.D.W. (c) AudioFile 2007, Portland, Maine
