Description de l’éditeur
The third riveting thriller featuring Sherry Moore—a blind psychic who can see the final moments of a dead person’s life—whose gift might be the key to uncovering the truth behind a deadly international trafficking network.
They are known only as the Lost Girls—young women from across the globe, marked by a haunting tattoo and vanished into the shadows of the Caribbean. Rumors whisper of their fate: trafficked through the mountains of Hispaniola and sold to powerful men, their secrets buried with them. No one has ever escaped. No one has ever lived to tell their story.
When humanitarian Stephanie Trahaney disappears while investigating the rumors, and the body of a tattooed young woman washes ashore in Jamaica, the case draws the attention of Sherry Moore—a blind psychic with the rare ability to relive the final moments of the dead. Only the victim is not Stephanie, but Jill Bishop, a missing American whose grieving mother has questions that Sherry might be able to answer. What Sherry uncovers in Jill’s final seconds hints at a vast, hidden network more terrifying than anyone imagined.
Driven by visions and a growing sense of urgency, Sherry follows a trail from the streets of Santo Domingo to the remote jungles of Haiti, where she comes face-to-face with a powerful voodoo priest with abilities eerily similar to her own. As the line between the living and the dead blurs, Sherry must confront forces both human and supernatural to expose the truth—before more girls are lost forever.
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Shuman's provocative third thriller to feature blind psychic Sherry Moore (after Last Breath) puts a troubling, unsavory issue front and center. When Sherry uses her unusual gift the ability to "see" the final seconds of a dead person's life to help save some stranded mountain climbers in Alaska's Denali National Park, she gets an unexpected and horrific glimpse of the sexual slave trade. After learning more about the tortured women she sees in her vision, Sherry doesn't hesitate to make a dangerous trip into the wilds of Haiti in search of justice. Sherry's unique talent opens doors for her, but it's her determination to live a full, active, useful life and her grit when things get rough that makes her such an appealing hero. Shuman puts a human face on the victims of human trafficking while painting a shameful picture of the failure of the world's nations to address the problem.
