There were various stories and anecdotes about spirits who have communicated with her. I think the one that hit me the most was when her own nephew Sean had passed away. I cried with the grief that she was going through. I was amazed at all the various ways in which she has used her talent.

I was expecting an autobiographical book, but not one that I found so engrossing and moving! It made me cry and laugh out loud.
As Maureen herself says, " It's a culmination of stories from tragdedy to triumph. It's a guidebook on transitioning from life to death and back again, and on living life to the fullest in memory of our loved ones in spirit. I really enjoyed Maureen's down to earth personality, her humour, and her compassion. Apr 24, Jules rated it really liked it. I really enjoyed this book. I have had some experiences similar to her but shut them out because they scared me.
Her compassion, honesty, humour and love shine through and you just can't read this and think she's a fake. It's so obvious she isn't. I'd love to meet her one day. Really interesting read and ultimately it takes some of the sting out of death f I really enjoyed this book.
Really interesting read and ultimately it takes some of the sting out of death for me too and gives me a slightly different perspective on life and what we're here for.
Thought provoking stuff. Jul 08, Jessica rated it liked it. She focused more on death than spirits. Yes, death involves spirits, but I felt like instead of telling the stories of the spirits, she focused on their deaths. The main deaths she focused on were those of young children and young adults. And she seemed to focus on cancer a lot. Also, she repeated herself quite a bit. I did enjoy the book, though.
Towards the end of the book, it seemed like she finally figured out what she wanted to say and how she wanted to say it.

As each one made contact with her, she finally came to terms with her calling: to communicate with the deceased, assist the dying, search for missing children, and teach the living about life after death, all the while raising her children in her suburban home.
Maureen Hancock is literally is the Medium Next Door, and in this book and through her stories of her encounters with the otherworld as well as guided exercises at the conclusion of each chapter, she offers the same comfort and wisdom she shares in her healing encounters and lectures about what is out there waiting for all who are open to its mysteries. Descended from a long line of legendary Irish mystics, she was no stranger to the spiritual realm, but for fear of being misunderstood by her friends and family she kept the otherworldly messages to herself, eventually suppressing them completely.
Maureen wouldn't hear the spirits again until she was in a near-fatal car crash. Soon after, she had hundreds of voices in her head, many of which helped her crack cases and expose fraud in her role as a litigation paralegal at a large Boston law firm.
