Pandora’s Daughter

Johansen, Iris. Pandora’s Daughter. New York: St. Martin’s Press, 2007. 364 pages. (Mystery/Thriller)

This book by Iris Johansen is EXCELLENT! This is one of the best books I have read by this author. This book is about a woman who discovers that she has special psychic ability. All of the sudden all of her memories that have been withheld from her by another psychic, come flooding back. Along with the memories, a killer, who has his mind set on murdering her, also comes with the package. He wants to get revenge because of her mother, also a psychic, making his son insane. Now his goal in life is to kill all the people who he considers “freaks.” All he needs to find all these people with psychic abilities is a book with the names and location of all the “special” people with these abilities who are around the world. From healers to listeners and everything in between, in his mind, must die. Will he get hold of the book? Will the woman live? To find out, read Pandora’s Daughter by Iris Johansen.


On a scale from 1-10, I give this book a 9. This book is excellent and a great page-turner. Make sure you pick a rainy or snowy day to pick this book up because you wont be able to put it down.
