The Calling

The Calling The first Mae Martin psychic mystery When an extraordinary ability intrudes on an ordinary life, ready or not, everything changes. A down-to-earth North Carolina country girl, Mae Martin-Ridley is a former high school athlete whose interests run to sports and fitness, not spirituality or mysticism. The last thing she ever expected to be was a psychic or a spiritual healer. Obeying her mother's warning, Mae has been hiding her gift of "the sight" for years. When events compel her to use it again, the unforeseen consequences spread to affect every aspect of her life-work, marriage, and family. To qualify for a new job Mae takes a class in Norfolk, Virginia, where she meets people who not only accept her abilities but push her to explore them further. She struggles with the shadow side of her gift. Though she wants to use "the sight" to help people, it gives her access to secrets she could regret uncovering. Torn between those around her who encourage her and those who condemn or doubt, Mae has to find her own path.
