Summary

Winner! Killer Nashville 2022 Claymore Award for Best Suspense

She sees the dead.

He’s a homicide detective who doesn’t believe in ghosts.

Until Evelyn’s clues become the key to solving a string of unsolved murders… and getting too close to her might be the most dangerous mistake he’s ever made.

Evelyn has spent her life hiding what she can do.

As an artist, her sketches don’t just capture faces—they reveal the dead. Whispers. Clues. Secrets no one else can see. It’s a gift she’s learned to keep quiet… because the truth has a way of putting her in danger.

But when her closest friend is murdered, staying hidden is no longer an option.

The victim’s ghost is still talking.

Detective Leo Ricci believes in evidence, instincts, and catching killers before they strike again. Evelyn doesn’t fit into his world—and he doesn’t trust what he can’t explain.

But he can’t ignore her.

Because everything she sees… leads them closer to the truth.

As the case spirals and the body count rises, Evelyn and Leo will have to trust each other with more than the investigation… because the closer they get to the truth, the more deadly it becomes.

Some secrets refuse to stay buried.

And this one could cost them everything.

The narrators were also perfect, on point and perfect for their respective characters.

Now this is why romantic suspense is my favorite subgenre! Kat Shehata had me from the first chapter and didn't release me until the very end. Evelyn has had a near death experience and upon healing has been given the gift of speaking to the dead and drawing. A chance meeting in a coffee shop has her starting a new relationship with Leo, a homicide detective. When one of Evelyn's friends is abducted, she is visited by her ghost. When she gives information to Leo though, his need for proof and his skeptical assessment puts a huge wedge between them. But the fear that danger is lurking around Evelyn puts them together whether they like it or not. Will he find the killer? Will he keep Evelyn safe? Talk about excitement. This book is full of thrills from the start. Psychic ability is a suspense thriller I love to listen to, and Shehata delivers a fantastic, original story. Evelyn is a strong, independent woman. I love her tenacity and initiative to make sure her dreams are used and helpful. Leo is frustrating, but oh so sweet. He is definitely easy to love, and his fierce need for the truth is admirable. Twists, turns, mystery, murder, love...it's all there and is the kind of story impossible to put down.

Sarah Puckett and Walker Williams know just how to make a story like this come to life. Puckett as Evelyn is strong, a little emotional, but stands her ground with a fierce stubbornness. Williams is the overprotective alpha detective. He is cynical yet gives a broader look. These two also bring the balance of the characters in with voices that fit each one, letting us into the world of the paranormal, and the mind of a serial killer. Loved these two and the listen they created.

The best of everything!

This amazing story has it all, the perfect balance of drama, angst, murder mystery, thrilling suspense, heartfelt emotions, paranormal and romance and this new to me author, Kat Shehata, mastered every one of those genres. I enjoyed the author’s writing style, she created an original story with interesting storylines that are captivating from start to end. The characters are realistic, easy to relate to and connect with, they are easy to care about and root for too. Evelyn came back from a death experience with a gift, not to just talk to the dead but for them to talk to her thru her art and gift of drawing. Leo is a homicide detective who follows the evidence and the facts to solve cases, he does not believe in ghosts or psychic abilities. These  two have an instant connection, he is intrigued by her and her art, but that does not change the way he feels about her romantically or with things that are unexplainable to him. When one of her friends goes missing Leo is assigned to the case, when she claims to have been in contact with her and that she was dead and points the detectives in the right direction to find her body, she becomes a suspect. She is removed from the suspect list fairly quickly, and does some investigating of her own, which puts her in harm’s way, Leo figures that out and wants to keep her safe, he also listens to what she has to say and maybe she will make a believer out of him. There is never a dull moment in this book, it is a cleverly plotted story that is though-provoking, keeps you on your toes and brings you to the edge of your seat.  Kat Shehata, thank you for this great story and emotional rollercoaster ride.


🎧📚🎧 And the amazing narration, Sarah Puckett and Walker Williams did a fabulous job bringing these characters and their story to life. I loved how they took each role, made it their own with a complete understanding of the character and gave each a voice that fit their persona to a tee. Puckett played Evelyn’s role with perfection, grasped every side of her personality, her confidence and bad@assery and Williams did the same for Leo. Both were great performing the roles of the secondary characters too. They set the perfect tone for the story, captured all the character’s emotions and projected them into their performance. These entertaining storytellers are a pleasure to listen to, their narration brings you right in to the story and keeps you there the entire time. Thank you for another great listen.
