Summary
The Weight of the Soul is the eighth in the best-selling Psychic Surveys series, that feature plot twists, compelling characters, and a mystery at its dark heart. Perfect for fans of Stephen King, Darcy Coates, CJ Tudor, and James Herbert.
Life may have moved on to new challenges for Ruby Davis, now being a mother to baby Hendrix, but she's back at the helm of Psychic Surveys, her spiritual domestic clearance company, and the cases just keep getting stranger.
A new client, Carrie-Ann Kendall, has suffered an accident at sea, one that - according to her - she shouldn't have survived. Visiting a clairvoyant who is apparently terrified by her presence, only confirms this notion. It is now up to Ruby and the team to find out whether Carrie-Ann has cheated death. If so, what are the consequences, and for how long?
Leon Vasilescu is the clairvoyant, now missing since encountering Carrie-Ann, and whom Psychic Surveys must track down. But in doing so, they will encounter another danger, one that is far more personal to Ruby and her mother Jessica, and could have them facing death too.

Another good read but…
Another good read but prefer the narrator from the previous books. This narrator pauses too long and tries a little too hard which distracts from the book and irritates. Only slightly though. Had to speed up the narration to continue enjoying

Bring back Sheila Deardan
I gave the story 5 stars but in truth i had to return the book after an hour and a half because of the narrator. She reads fine but her voice does not work for the book and Sheila had long ago put her stamp on this series. Pennys voice has a childlike quality that makes Ruby sound like a petulant teen. This brings the overall review down to 3. What a shame. Please please Shani Struthers can you get Sheila Deardan to re-record this book? I love this series so much and its such a disappointment.

weight of the soul
I have heard all the psychic surveys stories now, and while this story is as ever excellent....I struggled with the narrator, not sure if it was the delivery or the strong lisp which, as a hearing impaired person I found it difficult to make out the words she was saying

Brilliant
I love these books Psychic Surveys, storyline absolutely fantastic well plotted and great twist. I do have one moan and I don't like to do this as I don't wish to offend Penny Scott Andrews was not good at narrating this her voice did not have the effect needed for this at times sounding childlike, I did miss the talent of Sheila Dearden who previously narratored the rest of the books bringing individuality and life to each character.

Brilliant!
As an avid fan of Shani and particularly the Psychic Survey book series I couldn't wait to start this book. I was not disappointed.
Each book in the series brings new information about one or more of the main characters and it really feels like you're revisiting friends. This book has a gripping storyline that you'll find hard to put down and as you get further into the book you'll be waiting for the next chance to get back to it to find out more. It has twists and turns that keep you guessing and I just can't wait for the next one to see where it takes them and what they get up to next!

Great story as usual
Another great Psychic Survey story. A shame they changed the reader though. She read well but everyone sounded about 14!

Narration was absolutely awful
I have listened to all the titles in this series so far. I tried twice - with another audible book in between - to listen to this, and the narration is so distracting and awful I simply couldn't continue.
The new narrator, Penny Scott-Andrews, seems to have entirely missed the mark that these are supposed to be at least a little spooky. She makes everything sound like a child's tea party - uplifting and cute. Perhaps she should try children's books or nursery rhymes.
Her Ruby voice sounds like an 8 year old with a lisp and a cold. The other voices in the book are as bad or worse, as they don't sound much different.
Returning this book. My apologies to Shani Struthers as the story itself might be decent but with this narrator I can't continue to listen to her series.

Narrators thin on the ground?
I was a bit excited to see a new narrator, however we seem to have gone from our heroine being called Wooby to a whole other annoying level of impediment . Still I enjoyed the story.

Beautiful
Shani Struthers doesn't ever leave me disappointed!
This is a family's love story.
Warm and fuzzy conclusion.
The light radiates in this one!
I do miss narration by Sheila Dearden - I like Penny Scott Andrews, but I don't think she's the right tone for Psychic Surveys.
