The #1 New York Times bestselling author and the Edgar Award-winning author are back with a new novel featuring Kendra Michaels—hired gun for both the CIA and FBI.
It’s been four months since the events of Sight Unseen, and Kendra Michaels is obsessed with trying to track down serial killer Eric Colby. Despite his apparent execution at San Quentin, Kendra is convinced that Colby is still alive. The trouble is, she can’t prove it. Even her razor-sharp powers of observation, honed while blind during the first twenty years of her life, have gotten her nowhere. So no one believes her.
Then out of the blue she gets a call from the Sheriff of Olancha, California, about a young woman being held on a drunk and disorderly charge who lists Kendra as her emergency contact. It’s Eve Duncan’s sister, Beth Avery, who after being wrongfully institutionalized for five years has been living on the road and trying to figure out her life. Kendra can identify, having gone through a similar period of self-discovery after gaining her sight, and she takes Beth home to San Diego with her.
But the murder of a police detective who had once very openly crossed swords with Kendra is about to complicate her life even further. She visits the crime scene in search of anything that might provide a link to Colby and instead finds evidence that links the crime to her. Finally Colby’s master plan becomes clear: he is framing Kendra for a brutal cop-killing.
Suspicions mount along with the body count, and Kendra is thrust into spine-tingling pursuit to clear her name and find the killer no one believes exists anymore. Beth joins her on her quest, and agent-for-hire Adam Lynch soon follows. And they get help from another friend anxious to repay her debt to Kendra…none other than Eve Duncan herself.

“Narrator Elisabeth Rodgers will have listeners turning up the volume while enjoying this mystery. Kendra Michaels is characterized in soft, insistent tones that ramp up the danger she faces as she investigates crime scenes…Rodgers’ narration transitions smoothly between female and male characters, and her delivery makes the sexual tension between Kendra and Adam Lynch, a male counterpart, realistic. Driving the drama forward are the chapters told from the perspective of the villain. Written by a mother-and-son team, this is an example of the best that an audio title can offer. Winner of the AudioFile Earphones Award.”
