More comedy, calamity and cool characters from acclaimed-writer Jean Ure.Joanna, Chloe and Dee are the best of friends. They may be seen as outsiders at school, but they’re an inseparable trio. Joanna who narrates the story, lives with her mum. But Mum’s not your normal, average parent – she’s a medium. Cool, you might think, but Jo’s inherited her mother’s psychic ability, which is not really compatible with school life! When one of their classmates goes missing, Chloe and Dee persuade Jo to use her gift to find her – but having a gift is one thing, dealing with the consequences is another…
Seeing and Believing

In a cinematic culture where multiple visions of reality «play» at the same time, it is critical that Christian believers know how to confidently identify and «discern,» among other stories, the Jesus-story that defines their most important commitment in life. Using the optical metaphor of the «eye of faith,» the author identifies the spiritual life as a «visual life.» Through themes such as «looking through Jesus' eyes,» the bible as a «visionary text,» and the church as a «wide-eyed people,» he builds a connecting bridge between the seeing-soul in Christian spirituality, and the twenty-first century as the «age of the eye.» The key words for this exploration are spirituality, discipleship, insight, luminescence, and optical «therapy.» The author proposes the need for a «catechism of the eye» that will lead to the renewal of Christian ministry, spirituality, discipleship, and identity.
