Description

'FAST-PACED AND A LOT OF FUN . . . A MODERN ACTION MOVIE THAT JUST HAPPENS TO BE IN BOOK FORM' The Fantasy Inn on The Girl Who Could Move Sht with her Mind

Teagan Frost has enough sht to deal with, between her job as a telekinetic government operative and a certain pair of siblings who have returned from the dead to wreak havoc with their powers. But little does she know, things are about to get even more crazy . . .

Teagan might have survived the flash-flood of the century, but now she's trapped in a hotel by a bunch of gun-toting maniacs. And to make matters worse, her powers have mysteriously disappeared. Faced with certain death at every turn, Teagan will need to use every resource she has to stop a plot that could destroy Los Angeles - maybe even the entire world.

Full of imagination, wit and random sh*t flying though the air, this insane new Frost Files adventure will blow your tiny mind.

Critic Reviews

“Proceeds at breakneck speed through almost 500 pages of madcap adventure, with some terrific jokes and plenty of tension Like Alias meets X-Men in a grimy LA setting. Full throttle from the opening page, this book gives urban sci-fi fans everything they could want with a spiky heroine, shady government agencies, high stakes and a diverse cast of characters. I loved it! Teagan is a frank and funny narrator for this wild ride , which starts off with our heroine falling from the 82nd floor of a skyscraper and pretty much never slow down. Readers will be glad to learn that it's set for a sequel. A fast-paced, high-adrenaline tale that manages to get into some dark themes without losing its sense of fun Ford's strengths are evident in the taut action sequences and suspenseful pacing”

Ford's rip-roaring fourth Frost Files paranormal thriller splits up psychokinetic government operative Teagan Frost and her team, forcing all to face dangerous foes at a steep disadvantage . . .

This second book about psychokinetic superspy Teagan is even more suspenseful than The Girl Who Could Move Sht With Her Mind. The stakes couldn't be higher . . . The suspense, the danger, and the rocket-fueled pace are all turned up to 11 in this more-than-satisfying sequel KIRKUS

LIBRARY JOURNAL on EYE OF THE SHT STORM
This novel, and by extension the series so far, has been great fun. Jackson Ford is clearly having a ball and his enthusiasm for the characters and plot continues to remain infectious. I find myself awaiting each new instalment with barely contained excitement. If you haven't checked this out already, I strongly advise that you do so. THE ELOQUENT PAGE on EYE OF THE SHT STORM
[A] smart, action-packed novel . . . New readers will be able to pick up here. Teagan's bright wit offsets the darker moments, and a curious cliff-hanger ensures that readers will be back for the next entry

Furious, frenetic, fun, and 'f
