Sheila Lowe is a refreshing new author for me and I must read more of her work. With the physcic/medium spin it leads a new spin on crime investigation.
Jessica Mark is a young woman who after surviving a traumatic car accident in which her son was killed started hearing voices. It took a few years before she began to understand that they were spirit voices giving her messages to pass on to their loved ones.
This book then follows her journey helping law enforcement using her new ability, deals with family relationships and also a bit of romance - what more do you need
Well worth a read certainly a page turner.

Outstanding follow-up to WHAT SHE SAW. Lowe's writing is superb, and I highly recommend her books to readers who are interested in writing forensics, thrillers, mysteries, and in the case of PROOF OF LIFE, psychic connections.

This is an interesting supernatural type book with a main character who seemingly can hear the dead. It’s a good book, but sometimes the conversations the voices had got a little confusing.

Thank You Netgalley for the ARC for a review. I really enjoyed this book although I would have preferred reading the first book before as the character development of Jessica and Zach (the FBI agent) was missing and appeared to be stilted in this one. Jessica is trying to understand her gift of hearing voices, and using it to help solve crime and help people come grips with grief. Jessica meets Sage and has a instant connection with him but is trying to learn how to deal with her new life and has to use her new gift to find a little boy who was kidnapped by his father. This was a great suspense novel and I hope there are more books with Jessica.

I enjoyed this book much better than the first one. The characters are
developed very well. I cared much more about the main character than I
did the last book.
You do not have to read the first book to enjoy this one. Both books are
stand-alone. The writer does a great job of including what you need
from the first book without boring you with repetition.
Proof of Life, ASIN: B07NF485ZZ was so good I'm interested in reading
Sheila Lowe's other books!

Proof Of Life
Sheila Lowe
Description
Proof of Life, the highly anticipated follow-up to the best-selling thriller, What She Saw.

After recovering from amnesia five years ago, Jessica Mack never told anyone she had started hearing voices from the spirit world. Now, forced to use her “gift” to help find missing four-year-old Ethan Starkey, she can no longer ignore the voices. Time is running out for little Ethan as Jessica, and Sage Boles, a man with a mysterious past, is guided by the voices to a séance, where they hope to get clues to the child’s whereabouts.

Thanks to NetGalley for the advance copy to review.
I did not read the prequel book, but I shall now. This was a truly great read. With no spoilers, I can say, I was rooting for Jessica all the way to reach Ethan. I enjoyed the spirited side of the story as well. I was right in the story start to finish.
Well Done.

i found this book very engaging i loved the premise and i truly felt Jessica's loss, this grief was beautifully written, while i enjoyed the book at times of cause having the element of belief about the events in "real life" for me kept coming up but once i settled my head to just believe whatever the story and characters were saying i really enjoy the read.

The beginning was good but it soon got bogged down by unbelievable events and characters. Can't recommend

The second book in the series of Jenna/Jessica is a great read!

Jess assists the FBI with her new-found power of psychic ability. When push comes to shove, however, Jess is told in no uncertain terms (by the spurned Zach) that she can no longer assist, or have contact with, the FBI.

Jess cares less when she meets Sage. He takes Jess to meet Bela Bingham who appears to have psychic powers even stronger than Jess. Helping people is all Jess wants to do (and being with Sage). Yet, suddenly, she needs to help herself, too. Although Sage is a God-send, he carries quite a bit of baggage, her sister and Jess are on the outs and her insurance money is running low. The money Jess makes from tiny shadowboxes only stretches so far.

A life-altering séance Jess and Sage attend is the key to more than meets the eye...

Although this is a book series (I hope there are more!) this book can be read as a standalone.

Even if you are not really into psychic experiences and "mediums" this is a great read - give it a try!

My thanks to Suspense Publishing and NetGalley for a great storyline!

Sage and Jessica have such a great story. I love stories about ghosts and this was one of my favorites. The main characters, every single one of them made this such an amazing story. I started this story and from the very start of it, I was hooked. Thank you NetGalley for allowing me to read this book.

This second book about Jessica was even better than the first. I love her and Sage. The connection between them is believable and sweet. I didn't care for Jenna in the first book and this one definitely didn't change my opinion of her. I'm also not a Zach fan. It says a lot about an author's ability when they can evoke such strong feelings about their characters in a reader. The plot was full of action and suspense. I hope we see more of Jessica and Sage.

Jessica Mack has been through a lot after suffering memory loss in the first book and then to learn your hearing spirit's after waking up in from a coma, that was cause by your drunken husband Gary that also killed your son Justin and the only person who knows is her ex Zach who is FBI agent stills has feelings for her because she help him with a case of a woman name Hilary was killed by her husband when he ask her help to find a missing four year old boy name Ethan.

When her friend Claudia plays matchmaker she meets Sage who introduce her to Bella who give her understanding of what happening to her as she is drawn to Sage she learns some things about him that give her pause.

As she confide in her twin sister Jenna about what going on with her let's just say I wanted to smack her at the way she handle what Jessica was telling. I do say she sort comes around.

I do like that every person she meets or already know seem to be connect that makes me believe Jessica and Sage was meant to meet.

I love both books and I'm looking forward readingfrom this author again.

I ARC received via NetGalley and in exchange for an honest review.
