The Oracles of St. Ambrose

Chase Bradford is a self-assured heir to millions from New York City relocated to Nashville for his senior year of high school at St. Ambrose Academy.  He doesn’t even make a single new friend before the Queen Bee of the elite is found dead in the school swimming pool.  Chase isn’t terribly surprised by the turn of events, since he had visions in the surface of the water during his swim practice just hours before Cheyenne died.  The politics of high school are nothing new to Chase, but the psychic abilities are.

Before Chase can properly freak out, he discovers that two of his schoolmates also possess unusual abilities, and both had visions of the circumstances surrounding Cheyenne’s death.  Unfortunately, Natalie – a psychographer, and Bryan – a remote viewer, are from totally different social circles.  In fact, Natalie, whom Chase calls Cinnamon in his head, doesn’t seem to like Chase very much at all. 

The handsome new guy, the quiet invisi-girl, and the geeky sophomore must figure out how to work together to discover how Cheyenne died and why…before the murderer can get away with it.  The list of suspects is surprisingly long – or perhaps not surprising at all, considering how few people actually liked the popular queen of the elite.  Chase, Natalie, and Bryan follow every vision, and every lead – including Cheyenne’s ex-boyfriend, a jealous classmate, and even her own father – right up to the shocking end.
