Death Takes a Field Trip
(2026)(The second book in the Tales of a Reluctant Psychic series)
A novel by Kris Bock
Petra Cloch thought solving one murder would make life simpler.
Instead, another suspicious death lands at her feet.
When retired petroleum engineer Frank Underwood dies after ranting about a strange desert discovery, most people assume old age and paranoia finally caught up with him. But Petra’s friend Liberty isn’t convinced. Frank had become secretive, frightened, and obsessed with something hidden deep in the New Mexico desert.
Something he may have died protecting.
Petra reluctantly joins the investigation, using her hidden psychic ability to read emotions lingering on objects while trying to keep her dangerous gift secret. As clues lead from geological clubs to inheritance disputes to rumors of aliens and buried discoveries, Petra realizes someone will do anything to keep the truth hidden.
Including killing again.
With the help of her growing circle of friends, Petra must uncover what Frank discovered before the killer decides she knows too much.
Perfect for fans of paranormal cozy mysteries, amateur sleuth adventures, and atmospheric Southwestern mysteries.
