About this listen
Demoted to the cold case squad after shooting a suspect in the line of duty, Detective Ronan O'Mara knows that his career with the Boston Police Department is hanging by a thread. His first assignment is the case of Michael Frye, a five-year-old boy who has been missing for seven years. With no new leads or witnesses to interview, Ronan has to start from scratch to solve this mystery. When he sees a handsome local psychic on television, Ronan figures he's got nothing to lose in enlisting the man's help to find Michael.
Psychic Tennyson Grimm is riding high after helping South Shore cops find a missing child. He's even being courted by the Reality Show Network about a program showcasing his abilities. He has no idea that his midday appointment with a customer, who instead turns out to be a police detective, is going to change the course of his life and his career.
With the blessing of the BPD, which badly needs an image makeover, Ronan is allowed to bring Tennyson in to assist with the Frye case. Being thrown together in front of cameras is never easy, but add in an emotional missing-person investigation, a tight-lipped spirit, and a cop who's a skeptic, and it definitely puts a strain on both men and their working relationship.
When the child's body is found, the work to identify his killer begins. As Ronan and Tennyson get closer to solving the case, the initial attraction they feel for one another explodes into a passion neither man can contain.
Will working together to bring Michael's killer to justice seal their fledgling bond, or will unexpected revelations in the case tear them apart forever?

Fantastic listen
I’m absolutely addicted to this series in book form and listening to the audio, it gets even better. Pandora Pine writes a compelling supernatural mystery story and Michael Pauley just is Tennyson and Ronan, he gives every character an individual voice and I’m really looking forward to hearing this vast cast of characters develop.

Thrilling, twisted, magical and lust filled!
🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 5 stars
🔥🔥🔥🔥 Heat Level: 4
🎧🎧🎧🎧🎧 Narration: 5 (Love Michael!!)
Wow, just wow! Thrilling, twisted, magical and lust filled!
What an intense ride. This book has great twists and turns and a very challenging case is broken wide open. This book addresses a warped mind, that is just grossly disturbed, even more so when brought to justice. Although I guessed the ‘killer’ really early on, how the case was concluded was still interesting and thrilling.
I love Ten and Ronan!! They have great chemistry and their connection is funny, sassy, entertaining and so much more!! They move towards feelings organically and it is such a pleasure to read. They have so much passion and love; it’s funny, cheeky and just plain awesome! Although they have to survive a rather disturbing case throughout this story and such a challenging time, they survive and while they are a little broken, thankfully the book ends with a happy for now ending. I look forward to seeing what will happen next with them and their next cases!
Great writing from Pandora. I love Ten and Ronan and look forward to so many more adventures!!!
Thanks for reading!

fantastic
This series is new to me and I didn't know what to expect. I'm so glad I took a chance. I really enjoyed the story and the narrator did a fantastic job with the emotion behind the story. I cant not wait to see more of Ronan and Ten.

A must listen to this fantastic new series!
Cold Case Psychic has quickly become a favourite series of mine and I'm so excited to get to listen to it on audio, especially with the very talented Michael Pauley as narrator.
Ronan O'Mara is the cop in need of help from psychic, Tennyson Grimm. Of course, he's a huge cynic and doesn't trust in Tennyson's gift. That is until his work starts to shed light on the cold case Ronan is currently working on. The two men play perfectly off of each other and create such a fun partnership, both professionally and personally. What adds to it as well is the family of friends that surrounds both men, each no longer having blood relatives around so they've created their own. It provides a brilliant support system that soon bleeds together as the men become closer. What isn't so great is the cold case that they work on together. It is hard in a couple of places as things are discovered but the two MCs lean on each other in the hopes of getting through it.
Michael Pauley does an amazing job in giving life to these characters. With there being so many included as well, there are a lot of different personalities to voice and each one stands separate I think, distinguishable between each other. Then there's the emotion that he conveys in the highs and lows as we work through the case and growing relationship between Ronan and Tennyson.
I cannot wait to hear more from this series and definitely recommend!!

Recommended.
I thoroughly enjoyed the book. Quite a dramatic story. On occasion though, a bit too melodramatic for my taste, hence, the 4 stars. However, it does contain a bit of everything , humour, action, drama and suspense. I knew that I'd enjoy the audible version. Michael Pauley is one of my favourite narrators, and I knew he'd do this story credt. Definitely recommended, both in e - book and audible form.

A ghost mystery with a side of romance!
I now understand why this series is popular. I had a great time listening to it.
A gruff homicide detective (Ronan) finds himself assigned to cold cases after a case gone wrong. To add insult to injury, he still works at the precinct where his detective ex-husband works. Tennyson a psychic, is now a media darling after solving a high profile missing person case. I liked both MC's, as well as the secondary ones. I really enjoyed the mystery, especially the twist (that was certainly a jolt to the system!).
Michael Pauley is a very talented narrator - this audiobook showcases that very well. As the gruff Ronan, he had a Boston-style accent, with Tenn, it was a bit of a Mid West accent - at least thatht's he sounded to this UK transplant. He's very good at conveying the emotions of the characters, especially during intimate moments.
This is definitely a great way to experience the story.

Great narration for a really exciting story
I've seen these books come up a few times as recommended, and I was resisting starting a new, lengthy series but I'm really glad now that I gave it a go! I really loved Ronin - the grumpy Detective who gets demoted to working cold cases after his life implodes. Ronin is initially skeptical of a gorgeous psychic who helps a family find their child, but ends up working with Tenn on a cold case he needs to crack if he's going to keep his job. Tenn is a sweet, kind man and Ronin quickly falls for him.
The mystery is good, although the 'baddie' is a bit obvious it's still done well and ends up being quite horrifying in the end. The romance is complicated - it isn't all smooth sailing and is definitely a HFN ending rather then being a HEA. I assume there will be more bumps along the way before Ronin and Tenn really get together. It reminded me a bit of Cut & Run in that respect.
I absolutely loved the narration. Really bought the whole book to life and ramped the tension up! 10 stars for the narrator who really does an incredible job. There are some really awful and harrowing subjects that are covered and I was worried they might be shrugged off at the end or dealt with awkwardly. I was impressed though by the way the author dealt with that and didn't brush the after effects under the carpet.
Overall a really great start to a detective series and I'm looking forward to getting started on the next book.

Fantastic!
I loved this audiobook! It's sweet, sad, funny, romantic...all the things you want in a good story. It brought tears to my eyes at some points, and made my laugh out loud at others. Tennyson Grimm has become one of my favorite characters! I loved the way he gently shared the things he saw about Ronan and what he thought of his light. I enjoyed the mystery and the investigation, but I really loved the personal connections between all the characters and the often snarky back and forth banter between them. I look forward to more in this series.
The narration is very good. All the characters were given distinguishable voices, and the accents really came through. The delivery was smooth and well-paced.
I received a complimentary copy of this audiobook and have voluntarily left this honest review.
