Extended description

What would you do if you had a superpower you couldn’t use?

Darcy and Olivia Morrison are telepaths, but if they use their power they will be caught by the Telepathic Corps, taken away and never heard from again.

Everywhere they look they see people suffering, both telepath and normal, and feel compelled to help. Traditional avenues - police, fire, medicine - are unavailable to them because these professions test for telepathy. Undaunted, they opened their own private investigation firm.

Telepathic rights is the hot-button issue of their time. George Wynton leads this crusade from Boston, where he is opposed by a secret group called The Twenty, whose only goal is to eliminate all telepaths.

When a horrific murder is discovered, all clues lead to Wynton. It doesn’t help that he was discovered talking to the victim, the only woman he has ever loved.

Review by: Mandie Mims on Jan. 15, 2013 : star star
I was disappointed with The Shattered Door by Lisa Bouchard. The book started incredibly slowly and, honestly, did not become entertaining until about half way through. The characters were a bit flat, and some were downright unlikable. The plot had some interesting twists, but by the time they actually happened, I had pretty much given up enjoying this book. I sincerely hope the next book is more engaging than The Shattered Door, because I think the author has a good premise, it just wasn't actualized.
