"The police are convinced that Julia Ransom is guilty of the brutal murder of her husband, renowned psychic August Ransom. But after six months of investigation and media frenzy, she is free of their scrutiny, because of the lack of evidence. One afternoon she walks from her Pacific Heights home to Fisherman's Wharf, alone, unwatched-and, she realizes, happy. Standing at the railing of Pier 39, countless seals on the barges-and for a moments enjoys the sheer normalcy of it all. It suddenly comes to an end when a respectable-looking man distracts her with conversation before striking her unconscious and heaving her over the rail into San Francisco Bay. If it weren't for Special Agent Cheney Stone, Julia would drown. Cheney quickly realizes that the attempt on Julia's life must be connected with the murder of her husband, and reopens the investigation with the SFPD. Meanwhile, is Maestro, Virginia, Sheriff Dixon Noble-last seen in Point Blank-learns about a woman named Charlotte Pallack, whose extraordinary resemblance to his vanished wife. Christie, gone for three years, sends him across the country. Although in his heart he knows that this woman can't possibly be his missing wife, Dix is compelled to see her with his own eyes. In San Francisco, Dix's and Cheney's paths cross, brought together by FBI agents Dillon Savich and Lacey Sherlock. All four begin to unlock the mystery behind Charlotte Pallack's identity, as well as the forces behind Julia Ransom's attempted murder and the vicious murder of her husband. The most fascinating aspect of the case is the extraordinary cast of psychics they meet as they punch deep into the intriguing and complex world of visions, mind benders, and communications with the dead. As the stakes and the body count rise, Savich, Sherlock, Dix, and Cheney fight for answers and their lives." --
