Description
In this first book in The Tarot Mysteries series, Xana Bard has chosen a quiet life--drinking tea, talking to her many pets, reading, and conferring with the Pacific Ocean, which she calls Doctor P., because it's cheaper than her therapist and maybe a little more helpful. Xana is happy enough, she thinks, until the night Thorne Ardall crashes into her house. Should she patch up his bullet wound and help him find his boss's killer? Of course she should.

Advance Praise
"Ms. Atkinson's debut novel is a fast-paced romp through the hills of San Francisco starring an engaging heroine. Xana Bard, who modestly attributes her intuition to reading Tarot cards. Tarot aside, Xana is smart and observant as well as thoroughly likeable.
"With wit and an eye for detail, the author creates a humorous, well-plotted murder mystery, peopled with interesting characters and a believable resolution, The perfect book to read curled up in bed on a lazy weekend morning. I'm ready for the next card in the deck!"
--Julia M. Shumway
"I especially enjoyed the combination of humor and suspense in The Fool Card. And the likeable characters. And the tarot aspect. And the recognizable locations in San Francisco. And the fact that I had to look up a word or two; I like to learn while I'm being entertained. Looking forward to reading the next books in this series!"
--Laurie McAndish King, "Lost Kidnapped Eaten Alive," "Your Crocodile Has Arrived"
