One look in a criminal’s eyes and she witnesses their crimes.

Grace McKenna is not your average police officer.

She is haunted by the unsettling images she sees when she locks eyes with a criminal, her vision flooded with clues that force her to solve cases on her own.

A sullen boy, a tormented woman, a breathless man, a thousand pieces of shattered green glass.

On a missing persons case in a small Massachusetts town, Grace comes face to face with an unlikely criminal. Armed with only a handful of clues, she sets out to unravel a local family’s deathly secret.

Sharing the streets with someone only she knows to be a killer is unsettling to say the least, but when her off-the-books investigation generates more questions than answers, the list of people she can trust grows dangerously short.

It’s a race to solve the mystery before the trail goes cold and a killer walks free.

Join the hunt for an elusive killer who’s primed to strike again.
