A Sh*tload of Crazy Powers by Jackson Ford

 

Teagan Frost is a telekinetic operative for the government. Fresh off surviving a raging flash flood she finds herself right back in the middle of things. Her next shock is that her brother and sister are back from the dead. Before she can even wrap her head around that she finds herself trapped in a hotel full of gun-toting maniacs. And, oh yeah, her powers have disappeared. 

A Sh*tload of Crazy Powers by Jackson Ford is the fourth book in the Teagan Frost series and starts right in the middle of the action. Teagan is on the run from the cops after a car crash, being chased on foot and by helicopter. After a brief interlude to fill in some backstory, Teagan finds herself being released from jail into the hands of a pissed off boss. She's only been released because she's been requested to be part of a protection detail by a Senator who happens to be on the oversight committee for the clandestine agency for which she works. That lands her in the aforementioned hotel trying to figure out what's going on, why is it happening and how to stop it. 

Teagan's friend Annie wakes up in the hospital and tries to find out where Teagan is. Unable to contact her or anyone else at the China Shop, the cover agency for which they work, Annie sets off on her own. Relying on her mom and Reggie, recently dismissed manager of the agency, she attempts to track down Teagan's brother and sister. Soon, all of them are hip deep in danger. Annie on her own path and Teagan trying to uncover a conspiracy and stop it, all without her powers. 

Ford begins the action with a bang and keeps up a breakneck pace throughout. Teagan is sarcastic and fun to be on this ride with. The story is filled with other great characters, especially Teagan and Annie. The mystery is intriguing and the plot is relentless. Uncovering what is going on is half the fun with plenty of twists and turns along the way. There is a lot of backstory with events that happened in previous books, but A Sh*tload of Crazy Powers is a self-contained story that is satisfying on its own. You'll know a lot more about the characters if you've read previous entries, but if you're not worried about spoilers you can jump right in with this book. 

This book is nonstop fun and a great entry in the series. I look forward to more.
