The supposed crime against Elisa is a puzzling mystery. Who would want to hurt her anyway? By all accounts, the second-grade teacher is sweet as pie and straight as an arrow, a friend and confidant to all who know her.

Detective Brunner Chao has been assigned to her case. Unlike any other law enforcement officer, however, the pragmatic, coffee-guzzling detective has a secret weapon he uses in instances such as this-Genevieve Walker.

Mrs. Walker is a young wife and mother with many talents. Gifted with visionary dreams, she is also a psychic empath with the ability to feel someone's emotions when she touches them.

However, it's the third thing she does that gives the detective a colossal advantage in puzzling investigations with no tangible leads. Genevieve can converse with a person's Spirit in her own unique way if the victim is alive yet in a coma and unable to communicate.

When Genevieve contacts Elisa's Spirit for the first time, it relays something Genevieve finds utterly unbelievable and frightening. Yet the Spirit never lies. So, what's really going on?

This charming, cozy mystery will keep you guessing as the endearing, bantering duo weave their way through a myriad of strange and eerily creepy clues to its surprise ending.
