If you really want spooky witch stories, try "Wither", a terrific novel about witchcraft; or watch two great old movies, "Burn Witch Burn" with Janet Blair or "Horror Hotel"with Christopher Lee. Those were great witch stories.
Barbara Shapiro's "See No Evil" is one of those plodding books where you can predict almost every move the heroine, Lauren Freeman, will make. She's separated from her philandering husband, Todd, and takes care of precocious and rather bad little boy, Drew. Her best friend, Jackie, gets her involved in writing a book stating how important witchcraft was in shaping Colonial life in the 17th century. The book opens with seven witches in the 17th century vowing to return every 101 years and do the same type of shenanigans they are doing now, and eventually, in 1995, they will become immortal. So if you like silly reincarnation stories, this one's for you. There's little suspense; Lauren behaves like a nincompoop. Her affair with the handsome and successful Gabe leads exactly where you know it will. Not a good entry in the witch series.
NOT RECOMMENDED.

Editorial Review:

Determined to complete her doctoral thesis after separating from her husband, Lauren Freeman becomes aware of a three-hundred-year-old secret that threatens her career, her friends, and the life of her young child.

Editorial Review:

"A terrific, terrifying, ripping read'this is a thriller you won't put down. Shapiro is the new queen of suspense."
--Deborah Crombie, author of Dreaming of the Bones

With two college-bound teenagers and a pile of past-due bills, Suki Jacobs finally has the case that could make her career as a forensic psychologist: evaluating the sanity of Lindsey Kern, a convicted murderer claiming to be innocent'and clairvoyant. Awaiting a new trial, Suki's professional judgment could free Lindsey'who insists the real killer was a ghost'or find her criminally insane for life.

This complex case soon takes an eerie similarity in Suki's own life when her 17-year-old daughter, Alexa, has a premonition that her ex-boyfriend is dead. The very next day the boy is murdered'and Alexa becomes the main suspect. Desperate to prove her daughter's innocence, Suki will turn everywhere for answers except to Lindsey, the one woman whose own haunted past and psychic insights might save Alexa. Can Suki go beyond the boundaries of her own reality to see the truth ... before it's too late?

"Put Blind Spot at the top of your nighttime reading list, though I have a feeling you'll be keeping the bedroom light on long after you close the covers of this book."
--Jeremiah Healy, author of The Only Good Lawyer and Invasion of Privacy
