BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Fate in plain sight.
Major Crimes Detective Samantha Reilly prefers to work alone—she’s seen as a maverick, and she still struggles privately with the death of her partner. The only person who ever sees her softer side is Michael Turcotte, a teenager she’s known since she rescued him eleven years ago from the aftermath of his parents’ murder-suicide.
In foster care since his parents’ death, Michael is a loner who tries to fly under the bullies’ radar, but a violent assault triggers a disturbing ability to view people’s dark futures. No one believes his first vision means anything, though—not even Sam Reilly. When reality mimics his prediction, however, Sam isn’t the only one to take notice. A strange girl named Tessa Masterson asks Michael about her future, and what he sees sends him back to Sam—is Tessa victim or perpetrator?
Tessa’s tangled secrets draw Michael and Sam inexorably into a deadly conflict. Sam relies on Michael, but his only advantage is the visions he never asked for. As they track a cold and calculating killer, one misstep could turn the hunters into prey.
REVIEW:
I really enjoyed this book. It is a wonderful paranormal suspense book and will keep you interested until the very end.
Michael is a teen who has visions and while most do not believe him Samantha realizes what he can do and uses it to help. Michael has lived his own rough life. He lost his parents at a young age and was in the foster care system for years. Tessa lives a horrible life from the father from hell. His actions are so unbelievable that it is truly sad that there are real people like this in the world. And both are only teenagers. Together their lives are a horror story in itself. Samantha is hard core and what you may see as rude but seeing her the way the teens see her brings a different light to her character.
The author did an incredible job with this story. The characters are well formed and interesting to read about. Parent really has a way of pulling you right in. Highly recommend.
