Dylan Saunders attends his brother's wedding while
attempting to hide his cynicism. Having grown up in a
broken home with an abusive father and an absent mother,
Dylan believes the prospects of a successful marriage are
rare. At the bar, Dylan runs into the beautiful Catherine
Hilliard, a friend of the bride, who has psychic visions.
Catherine predicts his life will take a dramatic turn. He
will meet two women; one will bring danger, the other
salvation. Dylan laughs at her suggestion and ignores his
attraction to her. She is nothing but trouble.
Trouble does arrive, but it is not Catherine. Dylan, an
investigative reporter, made a powerful enemy when he
uncovered evidence that led to a U.S. Senator's arrest for
murder. Erica, the senator's mistress and Dylan's
informant, arrives at the wedding begging for help. She
leads Dylan into the woods for a private conversation,
where he collapses from a drug Erica put in his drink. When
Dylan awakens several hours later, Erica is missing and the
evidence of a bloody struggle makes him the prime suspect.
Catherine's intuition and psychic energy urge her to help
Dylan. They join forces, but soon discover Dylan's enemy
has manipulated the evidence leading the police to believe
Dylan and Catherine are guilty of murder. On the run and
trying to expose the killer, Dylan and Catherine must
confront and come to terms with the past before they can
find answers to the present.
Ms. Freethy follows her superb SILENT RUN with this
excellent sequel. The storyline of a man and woman on the
run is absorbing and the pacing is fast and furious.
Incorporating a psychic heroine enhances the story and does
not overwhelm it with unbelievable elements. The mystery is
solved with a chilling conclusion that will shock and
surprise readers.
Dylan Saunders is attending a wedding in the mountains
when a former lover appears out of nowhere, luring him
into the woods, then leaving him there, drugged and
disoriented. When he wakes, the woman has disappeared and
Dylan is accused of her murder. Now he must rely on the
help of a beautiful psychic haunted by her own dark past-
and find the killer before the killer finds them...
