Dreaming Death by Heather Graham   (Book 32 in the Krewe of Hunters Series)   336 pages

Stacey Hanson has had very vivid dreams and nightmares ever since she can remember and often they are harbingers of something that comes to happen in real life.   She does not like her gift as often it falls into night terror territory.   They continue throughout her life and when she becomes an adult she trains to join the FBI.   Stacey's first case is that of a serial killer who is stalking Washington, D.C. in a copy cat crime spree emulating that of Jack the Ripper.   Stacey's dreams increase and the demon on a gory path to the destruction of prostitutes in varying mutilations taunts her, calling to her.   She studies the Ripper case history and knows how each of the murders will be done, but finding the killer before it happens seems nearly impossible.   The elusive murder or murderers seems more phantom than human.  And like the baffled constabulary in Jack the Ripper's time, no one can figure out if the murders are being carried out by a surgeon, a butcher or a calculated fiend of paranormal proportion.  Special Agent Keenan Wallace, whose ghostly great-grandfather aids him from time to time and case to case, is teemed up with Rookie Stacey Hanson and while he is not happy about the fact, he knows she has exhibited a special ability or she wouldn't have been selected to work with the Krewe of Hunters.   Ties from the murders lead to all sorts of suspects even upper echelon and political types.    A good who done it for fans of murder mysteries and the paranormal.   I recommend this one to high schoolers on up, kids are savvy at an early age but this one has a little gratuitous sex thrown in.
