Dead to Me

Cold Case Psychic, Book 5

De: Pandora Pine

Narrado por: Michael Pauley

Psychic Tennyson Grimm was kicked out of his house and disowned by his religious parents when he came out to them as gay and psychic. The last thing Tennyson’s father said before the teenager boarded a Greyhound bus to Boston was that his son was dead to him. Flash forward 13 years later: Tennyson couldn’t have been more surprised when he woke to find the newly dead spirit of his father sitting on the end of his bed. David Grimm had one request of his estranged son: Go to Kansas and reunite with his mother.

Cold case detective Ronan O’Mara was all for this family reunion. Still recovering from injuries suffered during his last criminal investigation, he figures they’ll fly to Kansas, bury Tennyson’s father and the hatchet with Kaye Grimm, then come back to Boston in time to plan their upcoming wedding.

When the Union Chapel sheriff comes to Tennyson and Ronan with a years-old cold case he’d like them to look into, the Boston-based duo can’t turn down taking a peek at the case file. Tennyson is easily able to figure out whodunit, but the sheriff is leery to believe in his gift, bringing old prejudices back to life, and leaving Ronan to hunt for physical evidence the killer left behind.

Will Ronan be able to solve the cold case and help Tennyson resolve the decade-old feud with his mother? Or will the tornado with its sights set on the tiny town of Union Chapel, Kansas, make the other questions moot?

Great continuation of this series

This was a tough one as we knew that Ten's parents were majorly homophobic, but you don't really feel it because we never saw them on page. Well his mother, holy crap lady get a clue & that town he grow up in, keep on driving. So Ten wakes up to his dad who had just dropped dead from a heart attack & he asks Ten to go home & help his mother plan the funeral and help get his mom settled. I hated her from the moment that we met her & by the end she really hadn't redeemed herself to me, but she was getting there. Of course while all of this is going on, the sheriff of the town asks Ronan & Ten for help on a cold case. Now to me the who was so obvious that I know who it was before they ever stepped on page. The why absolutely floored me & the outcome sickened me. But the investigation was pretty good. Kevin & Greeley come to help them get through the arraignments & Greeley really shines not only with getting through Ten's mother but with the investigation of the cold case. He is going to make a great detective. While we have the funeral, getting his mother settled, investigating a cold case, there is also a tornado; it's Kansas after all. The only thing that bothered me is that the wedding seemed rushed, I would have liked more of the planning and the events. The actual service was perfect and what Ronan gets to see brought tears to my eyes. As always, Michael Pauley did an amazing job narrating this one. I can't wait for the next one to come out on audio.

This one dragged

This is my fifth audio book in the series. I enjoyed the first 2 hours and then the remainder of the book dragged on and on.

From Kansas To Dublin! 💚

This book brings us back to Kansas. It’s like Ten’s homecoming and also his closure. But it wouldn’t be Ronan and Ten without picking up a cold case. The conclusion of the case itself is worth a certain tv show episode.

The epilogue, oh that epilogue. 💙❤️

Michael’s range of voices for the characters in this book is really something else. He just keeps getting better.

Family connections

Michael Pauley does a wonderful job of bringing the characters to life yet again. You don't have to have read/listened to any of the previous books to enjoy this one, but you get a better feel for the main characters if you read the previous books.

This story starts with the spirit of Tennyson Grimm's estranged father showing up in his and Ronan's bedroom in the middle of the night. Ten's father tries to plead his case with the famous Cold Case Psychic asking him to go help his mother who has no family left except for him.
Ten and Ro reluctantly head for Kansas to attend the funeral of David Grimm. Ten tries to reach out to his grieving mother and with Ronan's help, he manages to reach a tentative truce with her so that the duo can help her get things in order for the funeral and beyond.
To add to the already precarious situation, the town sheriff invites the famous duo to work their magic on a case gone ten years cold. Add in a tornado, and just imagine the potential fall out.
I recommend this to all paranormal mystery fans who also love some man on man sexy times. A must for all Pandora Pine fans.

great story

wonderful voicework,each character sounded distinct and amazing story. This is a don't miss series and the ending of this one had me in tears.

Amazing continuation!

I am just in love with Ten and Ronan's story! These book are just amazing that I can't get over it. It just gets better and better. Then the amazing Michael Pauley doing the narration just makes it even more amazing. He just has away put me so engrossed into the story. I love listening to his voice as he reads these books. Amazing!

SPECTACULAR!!

Another spectacular addition to this wonderful series. This installment is more emotional than the others because it deals with Tennyson's parents who threw him out of the house when he was 18 because he was gay and a psychic. Now, he's headed back home with Ronan to help his mother at his dead father's request. Love Tennyson's and Ronan's relationship, they are so perfect together, grow stronger, and truly help one another through everything. Greeley was really spectacular in this book. Lots of emotions in this one, had me laughing and crying, but loved every minute of it!! The narrator is absolutely FANTASTIC with all of the emotions and feelings of the characters and the stories. I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

So many different emotions, such a wonderful book!

All of the Cold Case Psychic books have been phenomenal and this one was no different. In this episode, and yes I said episode because these books are like watching an ongoing crime drama on television, we get to see more of Tenn's past and what he had to overcome to become the man that he is. The mystery in this one was more of a secondary story line than the other books but it was so important that it be written that way. We still get to see these two men work their magic to solve another case while also getting to see some new gifts come into the story line. I am sure that everyone will agree that Tenn's mother is a serious piece of work and the fact that he is even able to be in her presence says so much about who he is as a man. Ronan and Tenn are more than ready to start the next chapter in life as husbands and the excitement for that day grows throughout the story but nothing can prepare you for the overwhelming emotions in the epilogue. I won't spoil anything but I will say I was brought to tears a few times during listening to that part, wonderful and beautiful tears. As always Michael Pauley does a beautiful job with the narration and definitely adds to the awesomeness of the book overall.

EXCELLENT

I love the story and plot. Tennyson and Ronan make a wonderful couple though I would have liked it more if there are less description on their sexual interactions and more actions on solving the cases. The other characters like Kevin the captain and Greeley his son are very good. Greeley plays a very important part throughout and I hope there will be more of Greeley in future books. Tennyson's mother is a real pain. Yes, I know that she and her husband are both very religious minded but where is the tolerance and compassion? This part I totally feel disgusted!! Be that as it may the rest of the story is interesting and I hope there will be more books to come.

Pandora does it again

Another great book in this series. Not sure how she does it but each book is better than the last. Looking forward to listening to the rest.
