* I was sent a copy of this in exchange for my honest review *
Ever since Adele was a little girl she's been able to talk to the dead. Her mother had the same gift but had always told her to ignore it. One day on the way home, she sees her ex-bestfriend Tori sitting alone in the woods and quickly realizes she's dead. As the news of Tori's murder gets out, Adele finds herself as the main suspect when she is unable to provide an alibi.
2 stars may be a bit generous to be honest, for the most part I was bored. Nothing really happened and most of the story was Adele just feeling sorry for herself. I didn't feel as though Adele developed at all through out the story. I also felt that the other minor characters were all one-dimensional and flat. I really hated Tori, she was a despicable human and honestly I'm not even mad she was murdered. I didn't care what happened to any of the characters or feel any sense of urgency/suspense through out the story.
