A book cover shows a dirt road through prairie grasses leading to a two-story building that is ominous with only two windows lit up. Behind it, the sun sets over a mountain. Dramatic clouds billow up, getting darker behind the title: A Stone Cold Murder: the Reluctantly Psychic Murder Mystery series by Kris Bock. Text says: Petra Cloch can touch an object and glimpse its history. A murder weapon might show her the emotions of the killer – but that doesn’t mean she can identify them.
