Left for dead, Nan indeed stopped breathing and had an NDE at the scene. Now apparently recovered, the legacy of the attack is mental and physical scarring - and, it seems, a sixth sense.

It's trial by fire, given what happened to her, but Nan has to prove herself in her colleagues' eyes - and her own. Balancing the demands of work and life as the single mother of a precocious 14-year-old, Nan is reluctant to talk about the extrasensory visions she has experienced since her attack, yet these troubling psychic clues may just provide the answers to the many disturbing questions in this case. Using every resource available, Nan closes in on the murderer.Item type | Current library | Call number | Status | Date due | Barcode |
