Dr. Charlotte "Charlie" Stone has dedicated her career as
a psychiatrist to exploring the darkest territory of all:
the hearts and minds of serial killers. It's a job she's
uniquely suited for, thanks to the secret talent that
gives her an uncanny edge—Charlie can see dead
people,
whose tormented spirits cry out to her for the justice
only she can provide. This blessing—or
curse—gives Charlie
the power to hunt down and catch madmen and murderers.
It's also turned her love life upside down by drawing her
into a hopelessly passionate relationship with the
lingering ghost of charismatic bad boy Michael Garland.
But there's little time for romance with her supernatural
suitor when murder comes pounding at Charlie's door in the
form of a terrified young woman fleeing a homicidal
maniac. Saving her life places Charlie squarely in the
cross–hairs of a sadistic predator nicknamed "the
Gingerbread Man," notorious for manipulating his victims
like pawns in a deadly chess game. And now the queen this
psychopath's bent on capturing is Charlie. Refusal to play
will only put more innocent lives in danger. Matching wits
with this cunningly twisted opponent will require all of
Charlie's training and expert skills. But even with her
devilish "guardian angel"—not to mention her favorite
flesh–and–blood Fed, Tony
Bartoli—watching her beautiful
back, the Gingerbread Man's horrifying grin might be the
last thing Charlie ever sees.
