About the Book

Flush with pounding action and shocking twists, "Second Sight" is the riveting story of an astounding heroine who, in delving into the darkest corners of the pharmaceutical trade, risks her life to set right an injustice buried deep in the past.

Book Synopsis

The fourth heart-pounding thriller featuring Sherry Moore--a blind psychic who can see the final moments of a dead person's life--whose gift unleashes terrifying visions that lead her into a deadly conspiracy rooted in a man's haunting memories.

For the first time in years, Sherry Moore feels like her life is finally steady--until the blinding white flashes return. Diagnosed as optical migraines, they've come and gone before, but this time her boyfriend urges her to seek answers at a Philadelphia hospital. There, doctors study the mysterious ability that has defined Sherry's life: by touching the dead, she can witness their final moments. But when a routine examination brings her into contact with a deceased elderly man, everything changes.

The instant Sherry touches Elbert Kline, the impossible happens. The machines spike, her body convulses, and after a lifetime of darkness, Sherry can suddenly see. Hailed as a miracle, her recovery comes with a terrifying cost--relentless visions of Kline's final memories. Haunted by fragments of a locked room, a screaming man, and a cryptic code, Sherry becomes obsessed with uncovering the truth behind what she witnessed...even as the visions grow more disturbing.

What she uncovers reaches far beyond one man's death. A powerful pharmaceutical empire with a dark past, buried government experiments, and secrets dating back to the 1950s begin to surface. As Sherry digs deeper, she realizes the truth is not only dangerous--it's deadly. Because some secrets were never meant to be seen...and someone will do anything to keep them buried.
