This was a nice diversion from my ordinary reads.  I do love a good paranormal cozy mystery. And while I did like this book, I didn’t like it enough to finish the series.  Liz is a psychologist who disdains any type of hookom.  Her mother likes to read tarot cards, and now her best friend is being terrorized with them.  The terror leads to muder, which leads Liz on a hunt for a killer.  She will require the assistance of occult specialist Nick, while trying to stay out of her detective brother’s way.  As a reader you have to pay attention to the various types of Voodoo, Vodou, and Hoodu, as they are used differently in different area and do pertain to the crimes. Overall, it was a fun read, but it easily dates itself, and it doesn’t really make you like the characters enough to revisit them.
