Book Synopsis

To what lengths will a woman go to save her family? Web-radio personality Bo Riccardi is pushed beyond her mental and physical limits when her husband, Oscar, is kidnapped by a man from her dark past. The abductor commands her to interview him live on her show, with Oscar's life on the line.

Giving in, though, creates an endless nightmare for Bo, as Oscar's captor begins to destroy her career and alienate her from everybody she loves.

Bo's secret asset is chromesthesia, seeing colorful shapes that reveal the intentions behind anyone's speech. She can literally watch what they say. But relying too much on this gift has compromised her, making her even less likely to rescue Oscar-and escape the guilt and shame that binds her to the kidnapper.
