About the Book

The last time Cassie Neill used her psychic abilities, she had been five minutes too late in leading the LAPD to a killer. While trying to forget the past, Cassie is drawn into the mind of another psychopath. As she goes deeper into his mind, she comes to realize he knows who she is. The first of three standalone suspense novels by Hooper being released in three consecutive months.

Book Synopsis

What if you can enter a madman's cruel mind as he plans his vicious crimes? What if you can see the terrified face of his prey as he moves in for the kill--but you can't stop his frenzy once he strikes?

Psychic Cassie Neill helps the L.A. police catch killers--until she makes a terrible mistake and an innocent child dies. Cassie flees to a small North Carolina town, hoping that a quiet life will silence the voices that invade her unwilling mind. But Cassie's abilities know few boundaries. And she's become certain--as no one else can be--that a murderer is stalking Ryan's Bluff.

It's his fury that Cassie senses first, then his foul thoughts and perverse excitement. Yet she doesn't know who he is or where he will strike. The sheriff won't even listen to her--until the first body is found exactly where and how she predicted. Now a suspect herself, she races desperately to unmask the killer in the only way she knows: by entering his twisted mind. Her every step is loaded with fear and uncertainty . . . because if he senses her within him, he'll trap her there, so deep she'll never find her way out.
