Art thieves are hitting North Bend’s wealthiest residents with a vengeance, and the most sophisticated security systems can’t seem to stop them.
The homeowners are outraged, and the sheriff’s office is baffled. How do the thieves know which valuables lie behind those stone walls and iron gates, and how do they know when to hit? The only possible answer is inside information, but from whom?
When a caretaker goes missing during a heist and signs of foul play are evident, psychic detective Kate Pierce has a late-night dream about the man’s murder and ramps up the investigation.
But when Lieutenant Steele has a chance meeting with a beguiling stranger, the entire case turns upside down, putting him and his team in the worst kind of danger.

Editorial Review:
“In C. M. Sutter’s new Psychic Detective Kate Pierce Crime Thriller, Beguiled, it’s burglaries, not bodies, that are drawing the attention of the Washburn County Sheriff’s Office in small-town Wisconsin. Kate and the other detectives are at the top of their game as they work to return some valuable artwork to the rightful owners, and when the caretaker of one estate goes missing, the stakes are raised. Then Lieutenant Jack Steele puts himself in the path of the thieves, and the tension really ramps up. With a riveting twist that few readers will see coming, this suspense-packed tale is one of Sutter’s finest yet.” Angela M., Line Editor, Red Adept Editing

It was ok, good at some parts, mainly at Jack's rescue & Clad taking charge of the team.
Once again Amber Monroe pissed me off. She is so nosy, making Kate spill Jack's secret just because she has to know everything. Some people want to keep things private but no, for Amber Monroe she has to know everything. Just like she has to be the 1st one to know about a case, before all of her colleagues instead of just waiting like everyone else. If she can't respect the chain of command then she'll never make it into the FBI or into BAU.

Not to be missed!

Once again another great book following detective Kate, and her psychic flashes. Not as much dreaming in this book as the previous books, but still a great read.
I loved the twist I definitely didn’t see that coming!
I think all the books can be read as stand alone, but they are better when you have the back story, so start with detective Jade, and follow them with her fbi journey, then onto Amber followed by detective Kate’s books.

Very boring

I’ve read the other 2 in series plus some from the original and spin-off. This was not up to the quality of the others. No mystery. No passion. Just a boring story. Do I need to know every detail of breakfast or nights at home? No. Give me heart pounding action or true mystery. This one had neither

A quick and light read.

Kate, Jack, Amber, and crew are called in on a burglary case. A group of clever crooks go into homes and steal precise inventory. They are in and out quickly and leave no trace.

As usual, the team work long hours chasing down what little leads they have. Of course, with a little psychic help from Kate, they eventually catch a thread that gets them somewhere.

Beguiled Book 4 of Psychic Detective Kate Pierce 4.6 stars

A very good plotline with clever bad guys. Not enough of Kate's psychic reasoning for my taste. Poor Jack sure gets his in this one.

one of the best!

This book had some twists & turns that kept it very interesting & exciting until the very end. Every time I read one of Sutter’s books I think it is the best. I always hope there’s another one that I can read!

Another great book

This book was great but did not have the oomph as the others. Have to see how the next book goes.

Very suspenseful and fast pace. Lots of twists and turns through out the plot of the story. For once Kate was not in jeopardy.

tightly written

Though you could see some of the twists coming, there some surprises. Kept to a fairly tight plot line with less psychic scenes

It was good to see that the book was about Jack. Kate and Amber never disappoint. Can't wait to read the next book.

End of series

Since this is the last book in this multiple series it is a little bittersweet. I like all the characters in Jade Monroe, Amber Monroe, Kate Pierce and Jack Steele. If you have never read any C.M. Sutter books I recommend these.
In this book the town of North Bend is being burglarized of all its rich art collections and good and coins of value. When a caretaker goes missing and then Jack disappears everything ramps up.
A great tale by a great author. Try it.
