Format:Paperback
Howard disappeared for a period while she had back trouble, but she came back with a roar with this mesmerising book.
Marlie Keen is an empath. She feels what is happening to people in episodic black-outs, and what she is seeing now is murder in a most horrible fashion. Though she has been there done that before, she cannot withhold the information knowing the killer will strike again and again, so she puts herself through the ridicule in hopes of stopping a serial killer.
Dane Hollister wants this killer caught and will use anything and everyone in his path, including Marlie Keen. He is attracted her, and he will put himself between her and the killer, but no matter how he feels about her, he will use her as bait to stop this madman.
Marlie is deeply attracted to Dane, feels that attraction deepening into stronger emotions, possibly love. But she fights this, knowing most people cannot accept life with am empath, fearing that their every thought is laid bare. Dane swears he is different, yet when push comes to shove, he proves he, too, is not that much different than the rest.
Despite their personal problems, they are forced to work together, because Dane knows only through Marlie and her gift will be be able to bring this madman to justice. Marlie's visions grow stronger, just as her feelings for Dane, but then he betrays her. He promised her if she helped track the killer he would shield her from the public and the media. Knowing how devastating this would be to her, he deliberately alerts the press to the psychic presence on the case baiting the trap to make the killer focus his attention on Marlie. But in doing so, he may have lost the woman he was falling in love with.
Tense, gritty and emotionally draining. A book you will never forget and a fitting return for Howard

Ms Howard’s work is usually gritty and hard hitting. This is no different. I read the book when it was first published and would read it again. The ending is strong and there is humorous epilogue that all will understand give the reader a chuckle.
The two main characters are strong and independent of each other. They what fictional characters should be.
The pace of the book is fast but it doesn’t leave much out. Like her other books she allows the reader to be creative in their reading by not overloading us with mass amounts of information.
The psychological twist is cutting and will keep you holding on till the end.

I somehow missed this one, and sorry I did. She is psychic who is in tune with serial killer. He is the cop determined to do anything, even set her up as bait to lure the killer. He falls for her, but their romance is rocking all around. Howard kept me on the edge of my seat with tense, but more so with the emotions. She made it "real" to me.
I hated for it to end.
