MESSAGES of MURDER Box Set: The first 8 books. Psychic murder mysteries set in a small town

If you have ever read a book and thought — I wish she were a real person I could actually call — Gabby McAllister is about to become your new best friend.
Gabby has a gift she never asked for. When she touches an object connected to violence, she sees everything. The fear. The pain. The last moments of someone who never made it home. She knows exactly what she is walking into every single time she reaches out and touches a weapon, a bone, a wound. She does it anyway. Because somebody has to, and in River Bend, that somebody is always going to be Gabby.
This complete eight-book series follows Gabby from the edges of her own community — where even her brother Dustin, head detective of the River Bend police, would rather pretend she does not exist — all the way to becoming the person the whole town calls when everything else has failed. Along the way there is a slow burn romance with the very handsome Detective Lucas that will have you absolutely screaming at the pages. There is Grandma Dot and Mrs. Mott, the kind of found family that makes you feel like you belong somewhere. There is a town that slowly, grudgingly, beautifully learns to trust the woman it once feared.
Each book is a complete standalone mystery — a corn maze with a darkness nobody expected, a haunted museum with secrets in its walls, bones buried so deep they were never supposed to surface. You can start anywhere. But readers will tell you: start at the beginning and do not stop.
There is also a quiet thread of faith running through every page — not preachy, not loud, just present the way real faith is. It is the thing that keeps Gabby standing after every vision strips something out of her. It is, more than anything else, why this series feels like something worth coming back to.
Readers call it creepy, cozy, and completely impossible to put down. They leave reviews that say things like crap on a cracker this series is good. They message Dawn to tell her Gabby feels like a friend.
She will feel like yours too.
