Our hero is Leda Foley, a struggling travel agent with exactly three clients, a hilarious best friend, and rather unreliable psychic abilities. Her only practical use of her special skill is as a “Klairvoyant Karaoke” singer at her favorite Seattle bar. When a premonition causes her to change a client’s flight, saving his life, she becomes involved in a cold case murder. Leda is observant, smart, funny, and at times self doubting, but always inspiring. Grave Reservations elegantly combines a serious mystery with authentic characters and a touch of the fanciful.
