Appraisal:
Sam Firecloud, Navajo medium, is up against something a little
different than he has experienced before. His dreams are being visited by
someone he knew several years ago, and he is having trouble communicating with
the spirit. When he calls Lacey, a PI and occasional partner, to get her advice
on his dilemma, they both decide they need to check things out around his last
known address in Las Vegas, Nevada. After Lacey finds a couple of reputable
contacts in Homicide and Vice departments at the Vegas police department, Lacey
and Sam head out of L.A. with few facts and no leads to follow.
Dream Walk has a bit of everything that makes this series
so great. These include an excellent mystery, Sam using his empathic abilities
to connect with the victim, the adventure of trying to locate a dead body in
the desert around Las Vegas, as well as the sexual tension between Lacey and
Sam exacerbated by outside parties. The secondary characters are well developed
and realistic. This story also is the most dangerous Lacey and Sam have ever
been involved with. They both learn, the hard way, that drug lords are not to
be trifled with. But to prove a crime has even been committed at all, they need
the dead body.
I found Dream Walk a tension filled, emotionally charged
mystery as Sam and Lacey scour the dangerous side of Vegas. While also being
confronted with their relationship as partners in business and the growing
sexual tension between them. Decisions need to be made. Is Sam, with his
introvert personality, going to step up to the plate? How will Sam’s kids react
if he decides to have a personal relationship with Lacey? Find out now in Dream
Walk.

FYI:
Dream Walk is the fourth book in A Lacey Fitzpatrick and
Sam Firecloud Mystery series. Each of these mysteries could be read as a
standalone if you choose. However, I am enjoying the relationship developing
between Lacey and Sam and recommend reading from the beginning to get the full
benefit of their storyline.
