SIGHT UNSEEN by Roy Johansen

Blind for many years, music therapist Dr. Kendra Michaels regained her sight through an experimental surgical procedure. Because of her blindness, Kendra's other senses have been heightened, which makes her highly sought after by law enforcement agencies. In the past, she's been a freelance operative for the FBI and worked with federal agent Adam Kyle.

When Kendra sees a TV report of a traffic accident on a San Diego bridge, she can tell it's a staged murder. Rushing to the scene, she wants to make sure critical evidence is not destroyed and that the proper authorities are called in to handle the case. Of course, this means she's going to be working with Adam Kyle again, especially when more murders occur. Most unsettling is that these murders are replicating high-profile cases Kendra has solved.

Taunting her with messages identifying himself as Myatt, a notorious art forger, Kendra soon realizes the killer is not working alone. Too many elements point to an evil, deranged assassin, Eric Luntz, who's awaiting execution in only a few days. Is it possible that Myatt is being controlled by the ruthless Luntz from behind bars? And if so, how? It will take every resource Adam has available, as well as Kendra's unique abilities, to uncover the truth and learn the assassin's identity.

A shocking ending to SIGHT UNSEEN, by Iris Johansen and her writing partner/son Roy Johansen, assures readers that Kendra Michaels and Adam Kyle will be returning for another installment in this exceptional series. Plot progression maintains a steady pace with a vibrant cast of characters to hold the reader's attention throughout. SIGHT UNSEEN is a great sequel to CLOSE YOUR EYES, where Kendra Michaels was first introduced. And I'm looking forward to the next episode.

She was safe in a world of darkness. Now danger threatens
in the cold light of day.

Before the experimental surgery that gave her sight, Kendra
Michaels developed her other senses to an amazing capacity.
Now she can identify a Nissan by the sound of its engine, a
Norelco electric razor by the pattern of stubble it leaves
behind, or an obscure colorless fire accelerant by its
sweet smell. Law enforcement agencies clamor for her rare
powers of perception and observation, too often disrupting
the life she has built helping others through music
therapy. Because so very often, only Kendra can get the
job done.

But in this case, it's Kendra who first realizes that the
apparent traffic accident on San Diego's historic Cabrillo
Bridge is in fact a murder scene, and she rushes to alert
the police before crucial evidence is destroyed. As the
body count rises and one murder unveils another, a gruesome
pattern emerges. Someone is killing people in ways that
mirror Kendra's most notorious cases. She has a fan:
someone who admires her work and is twisted enough to show
that admiration through murder--while naming himself after
the biggest art forger of the 20th century. He views
himself not as a monster but as an artist. And he is not
working alone.

As the darkness closes in, near enough to touch Kendra and
those she loves, Kendra must come face to face with her
greatest fears--and her most ruthless enemy. A man who
moves through the shadows, a man she may even know, who
hides behind the mask of sanity, sight unseen.
