A Fatal Touch

Theodora Nash is more than an antique appraiser; she’s a psychometrist who can see, hear, and feel the entire dark history of any object she touches. She usually keeps her gift a secret, but when a seemingly priceless family heirloom arrives for appraisal, Theo's carefully maintained life shatters.

The antique immediately floods her with a vision of a historical murder, followed by an immediate, terrifying problem: a palpable dark energy from the object is infecting the town, causing chaos and violence. Theo is racing against a ten-day clock, battling debilitating flu-like symptoms and the victim’s suffocating panic every time she uses her gift.

When the modern-day killer, the ruthless Silas Thorne, realizes Theo is closing in, he breaks into her home and threatens the heirloom’s current owner. Forced to investigate under the protective but skeptical eye of police consultant Gavin Hayes, Theo must use her uncomfortable, dangerous connection to the past to unmask Silas.

If she fails to find the truth hidden within the antique's fatal aura, the killer will escape, and the darkness will consume the town forever.
