Delia Fox is a naïve
nineteen year old who discovers by accident that she has a talent, a gift,
which turns out to be dangerous. She can see the memories of the recently
deceased just by touching them. Wanting to do something significant with this
gift, she takes up the invitation of Detective Inspector Jonah Rainbird to
consult for the police in solving mysterious deaths. And that’s when the
trouble starts. Delia’s success means others fail. Powerful criminals with
infinite resources want revenge. The media and her ex-boyfriend are baying for
her blood. Her family think she is consorting with the Devil. When her life is
threatened Delia goes into hiding, totally unprepared for the utter devastation
she is about to witness.
She speaks up for the dead, but who will protect her
from the living?
