Amanda Brobyn's first novel Crystal Balls is about a girl who becomes addicted to psychic and clairvoyant readings. The summary says: "Tina Harding is a successful and ambitious estate agent. All is going according to plan and her painful past as a failed actress has been well and truly buried. Now she's a down-to-earth and hard-headed businesswoman. Life, however, is full of surprises. While accompanying her more wide-eyed colleague, Chantelle, to a psychic fair, Tina herself falls victim to the lure of the crystal ball. She is warned that she must learn to trust her own decisions, and assured that the arrival of her soul mate is imminent. An elated Tina feels she has discovered a shortcut to fulfilment - her very own life's SatNav. Enter the gorgeous sex-on-wheels property-developer Brian Steen, who is very keen indeed to get up close and personal with Tina. But, call it fate, call it karma or just sheer bad luck, their steamy encounters are destined to fizzle out every time. But Brian is a patient man - up to a point - and, with help from Tina's psychic guides, things are sure to pan out just fine ... aren't they?" Crystal Balls is out in late February. Brobyn is currently working on her second novel The Curry Club.
