The Tattered Book

Going for a morning run, Cassi stops at a garage sale and buys a mysterious Tattered Book. Her family accuses her of living in a fictional world. Cassi disagrees, but as soon as she starts reading it her carefully ordered life begins to unravel. Every time she reads the book, she dreams about it… about what hasn't happened yet. And the main character seems to see her, even in the written pages of the book she's reading. Shy by nature, Cassi attempts to talk to him, but every time she does, she wakes up.

Detective Marco Marino is working an intricate and dangerous case. The Scutari mob family has threatened another business in Florence. As he works the case a woman keeps appearing and disappearing like a phantom. At first, he's unnerved by this constant distraction from his work, until he realizes she is helping him solve the case. If only she could speak! When he takes her into his arms for a fleeting kiss, he knows she's real. This is a mystery he must solve.
