London, 1878. A secret gift. A deadly vision. A relentless hunt for the truth.
Electra Poole has spent much of her life hiding her abilities, fearing the same fate as her mother, who was labeled mad and locked away. But in order to survive on her own, she plays into London's obsession with spiritualism, offering carefully crafted séances to those desperate for answers. Yet when she foresees the death of a wealthy noblewoman and chooses to stay silent, the guilt is suffocating, and the danger is very real.
Lady Becknell is murdered that very night. And someone might know what Electra saw. While Scotland Yard's Detective Inspector Gideon Pierce, a man tied to her past and to the father she's never forgiven, is tasked with solving the case of Lady Becknell's murder, Electra can't help but do a bit of investigation of her own. She feels guilty for not warning Lady Becknell. But the killer is watching, and with each step closer to the truth, Electra fears that more lives hang in the balance.
To outwit a murderer, she must embrace the very gift she's always feared...before the killer claims their next victim.
