Amber McNeil has a psychic gift, and a secret...

The handsome detective sergeant has no idea of her traumatic past. As a criminal profiler, he also views Amber’s special ability as a non-starter when it comes to digging up solid evidence. Ultimately, Amber must decide if she will risk her life to snag the killer and prove her value. To accomplish that, she needs her partner’s help. How can she persuade him to trust her insights when only she can perceive them?
