Summary: WELL WRITTEN ROMANCE BUT --
Review: Marty Newland awakens from a very disturbing dream and then finds out that the girl she had seen was a second co-ed missing from Willow State College. She generally tries to ignore her dreams but feels that she has to do something about this young girl, Julia Allman.She calls her clinic office to ask Jerry Macomber to cover for her as she will be a little late. She is going to see the Chief of Police Jess Stout hoping he will not look on her as a "wierdo". The police department and Jess are getting a lot of flack from the city councilmembers to step up their investigation of Julia's disappearance. The first girl to disappear was murdered. Marty looks for the head man and runs into Walker Dietrick, Chief Stout's assistant. Marty introduces herself as a counselor at Willow Community Mental Health Clinic. She tells Walker about her dream and informs him that he probably has a least a month to find Julia. If she is not found, her abductor will murder her. Walker does not have much faith in ESP or any psychic method but he does tell Jess about Marty's report. Ah, now we have Walker, who is used to lovin' and leavin' women [did I mention that he is a dark red head?] and Marty, a blond, who refuses to get involved with anyone who won't accept her psychic talent. And that sure nails Walker. But after the first kiss. . . . Ah, well she decides she will not fall in love with Walker but she sure will fall in bed with him. [now I wonder who is screwy?] Toliver Vance, a senile but harmless old man, tries to convince Walker that he knows who the murder is. The story in general was a very good read - the flashes into the murder's actions enhanced the story and rounded out Marty's dream.
Some tension was added when Marty tries to cut off her relationship with Walker [Yeah! right] and decides to help look for the man in her dreams. Nearly getting caught. Generally a good story -- will recommend --M for entertainment reading - characters were excellent.
