5 stars for Rabbit Trick (Mindspace Investigations book 0.5) by Alex Hughes.
Rabbit Trick is a short story that takes place before the events of Book 1 Clean.
I am glad to have taken on this prequel only after having read book 1 Clean and book 2 Sharp. Since I am already familiar with the two central characters and their background, I can plunge head on to fully appreciate this short story of 45 pages and enjoy it immensely.
There are a few things I really like about this introductory book to the Mindspace Investigation series. First is the book title. The author has chosen a spot-on name to start off the series with. None other name than Rabbit Trick will do justice to our telepathic hero and his subsequent narratives. Next is the pleasure of reading a short story and not feeling short-changed. Though the account is short, the author starts off with a good beginning and wraps up with an equally appropriate ending. Finally, I love it that the story concludes with an ending but yet, not an ending.
For those who have not yet started on this series but planning to, I will recommend to read book 1 Clean first, follow by this prequel Rabbit Trick, and then move on to whichever next.

When the cops call me in the middle of the night, I know it’s bad. One of their own is dead, strangled in her car by a professional killer, and it’s up to me, telepath consultant extraordinaire, to pull the rabbit out of my hat and solve the case. Only this time I’m not so sure I can.
Homicide Detective Isabella Cherabino is breathing down my neck. The dead cop’s partner is too. And now, the worst—there was a five-year-old kid in the car, a kid no one can find.
