You can’t always see . . . what’s in front of your eyes.

An acclaimed investigative journalist, Marlie Kaplan was headed for stardom until a story she was working on undercover went terribly wrong, leaving her blind. But through experimental surgery, she miraculously gets back partial visionand something more. Now she can also see unexplainable things, things beyond the naked eye….

Eager to jump-start her career, Marlie lands an exclusive interview with a charming yet enigmatic politician. Then the unthinkable happens; A colleague is murdered and Marlie’s the only witness. What began as a promising new start suddenly dissolves into a terrifying web of deception and death, a nightmare from which there is only one escapeif Marlie can see it in time.

From Publishers Weekly: After having been blinded in an explosion, TV journalist Marlie Kaplan is implanted with an experimental computer chip that allows her to see an energy field (the color ranges from evil black to passionate red) that surrounds everyone and reveals their hidden emotions. When Marlie happens upon a grisly murder, she realizes that the crime could have been committed by any of the three men in her life (an antagonistic detective, a sneering ex-husband and a charming would-be governor) and is forced to rely on her extra sense to find the guilty party. Writing from inside Marlie’s mind, Amos (Cold White Fury) ably shows Marlie’s attitude develop from an understandable after-surgery bitchiness to the focused thoughtfulness required of a reporter. Many readers will appreciate such exposition, but it may discourage those who like their mysteries with a little less introspection.
