Book Description

A suddenly psychic 40-something divorcee uses her newly acquired ability in this thrilling new series by the author of the popular Kate Banning mystery series.

Regina Cutter is the mother of two grown children and the victim of her husband's midlife crisis. Out of a marriage, an income, and a place to live, she has relocated to Boston's Back Bay where her psychic aunt bequeathed her a townhouse—and some paranormal ability. Adjusting to her new middle-class life and taking on a new job as a police psychic, Reggie is called upon to help prove the false imprisonment of a drug felon and end the possible haunting of a recently renovated townhouse. It's quite a long way from bemoaning a broken marriage, and newly minted psychic Regina Cutter is just getting started.

Pretty lame. .......2006-09-25

Rarely has a mystery grabbed me so completely from the first few paragraphs. I was so excited to discover this series about Regina Cutter, a newly divorced forty-something mom of two who tries to use her psychic ability to help the Boston Metropolitan Police.

However, the story quickly degenerated from that early high. My complaints, in no particular order:
-The title has absolutely nothing to do with the book. Hate that.
-Too many coincidences -- the plot was wrapped up a bit too neatly with all the strange occurrences tying together.
-At the same time, a lot of loose ends were left... what about Doc? What did he want to do with Regina?
-Random quoting of Bible verses and Dante's Inferno that were distracting and laughable, rather than adding to the story.
-Stark's deus ex machina appearances to save Regina just in the nick of time
-What's this with the psychic who is basically useless? She never seems to pick up anything worth mentioning, yet s Les juifs et XXe siècle: dictionnaire critique

ringtone88.com y give a real sense of what the country music scene is like. And it's fun to try to guess whether Cecelia Tishy's musician characters are patterned after any particular music stars. This book had an exciting and surprising conclusion that will satisfy any mystery fan, whether or not you care about music.

A good storyline with an appealing main character.......2000-01-22

A really good read. Kate Banning is an appealing character, trying to hold together a job and single motherhood while adjusting to being a Yankee transplanted to Nashville. It's fun to watch her cope with her teenage daughter's first "Y'all" and the world of country music in general. And the mystery is absorbing and its solution surprising.

I look forward to another in the series but.......2006-07-29

I hope the author does a better job managing the characters. The ending felt tacked-on; yes, we learned the killer's identity, but in a rather abrupt manner. Felt as though a timer had gone off, sort of the end of an exam: "Fingers off the keyboard, pass your work forward to your publisher."

Psychic absurdity.......2006-04-07

Life can be rough for a psychic when her powers fail, as they do big-time one day for Reggie Cutter. She has no forewarning of the speeding car which leaves her sprawling, bruised on the road. And though the tenant in her apartment house comes rushing out, he isn't much help. He insists she was jaywalking, which somehow convinces her that the hit and run really wasn't really a hit and run. But that's just the beginning of a bad day. That evening, blood drips down by the radiator in her apartment from the tenant's rooms above and--you've guessed it!--he's been murdered . . . killed with an electric drill and pinned to the floor with a nail gun. In addition, a strange calligraphic figure has been written in blood on Reggie's door. All of this leaves her determined to find out who the killer/artist is but her psychic powers do little to help either her or the police. ALL IN ONE PIECE is about Reggie's dogged and frequently bruised pursuit of the perpetrator among a host of suspects. Tishy manages to keep up a suspenseful atmosphere while providing an intriguing protagonist--one who manages to bumble along to a final and somewhat unbelievable solution to both the crime and the art work.

A good read!.......2006-03-30

Reggie Cutter's new upstairs tenant, Steven Danelin, comes to her rescue when she is hit by a car in front of her house. He wants to tell her about a financial deal he was working on with Reggie's late Aunt Jo, but never gets the chance as he is found murdered in his apartment the next morning.

Reggie has worked with the police before, but her psychic abilities are not requested for this case because the lead detective considers her a suspect. Reggie starts investigating on her own to find out if she is in danger from the killer--and to clear her name.

The first person, present tense narrative makes it difficult for us to get to know the secondary characters as real people since we only learn about them through their conversations with Reggie--though this has improved since the first book in this series.

Reggie is a compassionate person, despite being unable to let go of the pampered life she led before her divorce. Even though she is relatively new in cultivating her psychic abilities, she intends to use them to help people.

Armchair Interviews says: We like Reggie for that and want her to succeed and look forward to more in this series.

charming amateur sleuth mystery .......2006-03-26

After divorcing her wealthy husband and losing much of her income, psychic Reggie Cutter moves into the townhouse she inherited from her aunt Jo in Boston's South End. Jo was a psychic who helped the police on many cases and Reggie is following in her footsteps. Her life takes a dangerous twist when she gets hit by a car. Her upstairs tenant Steven Damelin sees the incident and believes it was t an accident not someone deliberately trying to kill her. After getting her fixed up Stephen talks about a deal that Jo was going to invest in and ask Reggie if she is interested. She puts him off.

That night she hears strange noises and the next morning she sees blood dripping from Steve's apartment into hers; she opens his door and sees him lying on his floor, the victim of a gruesome murder. Since she is involved the police don't want her working the case. She intends to listen to them but she has a vision of Steve in water and a piece of wood hitting him. She decides to do her own investigation by interviewing plenty of suspects who had reason to kill him, and almost winds up getting killed by a murderer without mercy.

ALL IN ONE PIECE is a charming amateur sleuth mystery with the eccentric cast of characters adding humor to this who-done-it. The protagonist is a down to earth person who thinks of her psychic powers as a tool to be used as one more investigative method while readers will look at her as the kind neighbor next door that everyone likes. Cecelia Tishy has a knack for creating a plausible mystery with a paranormal twist.

Second in the series is first rate!.......1999-10-22

Make room for Cecelia Tishy on the growing list of writers of intelligent mystery novels. In fact, make room at the top of the list -- she may be the best one yet. Her Kate Banning series displays a masterful use of a popular literary form to entertain and to inform. Based in the Nashville country music scene which Ms Tishy understands perfectly CRYIN' TIME, the second in the series, gives a first-hand look at a world we all know of, but know very little about. As we follow Kate's investigation from sweaty, back-office consultations to glitzy benefit events, we witness the realities of a tremendously popular performance genre. But, best of all, it's a great story. Cecelia Tishy feeds out her plot line with the even consistency of a skilled fisherman ["fisherperson?" Naw.] She never scares off the reader with frenetic pacing of the plot. On the other hand, the description of the human details in Kate's life and witty prose style ["She pumped cordiality like soda fountain syrup," "the deep-down, deep-dish curiosity"]keep us avidly turning the pages. The characterization is flawless;it draws us right into the book from the first pages. Kate avoids all the pitfalls of other women sleuths. She is independent, but not hard like Dana Stabenow's Kate Shugak, likeable, but never becomes a cuddly caricature like Jessica Fletcher. Kate does her own thing with class and intelligence. The character of the American Indian singer, Troy Blackfeather, was of primary interest to me. Drawing from two familiar "Indian guy" archetypes, Cecelia Tishy crafts a believable young Native male. In his two lamentably short appearances in the novel Troy is first the committed, adoring lover and then the broken, vulnerable warrior evoking the same urge to console as does the well-known icon, "End of the Trail." A good read by an excellent writer! Be on the lookout for number three in the series!

Not up to par..........2001-01-02

I love country music and when I heard about this new series I couldn't wait to read it. However, I was quickly dissapointed. The main character, Kate, didn't really like or know anything about country music, and the way they talked about it got to be a little anoying. The characters were a bit 2-dimensonal and blah, and the dialog didn't always flow together. Hopefully the rest of the series will be better, but I won't be giving them another try.
