An assassination is planned in Syria. An extramarital affair occurs in Washington, DC. The US president decides to run for reelection. A mother and her daughter in Oregon are threatened. Relentlessly, Linda Darby and Ryan Testler are pulled toward these seemingly disparate events until their only way out is to confront what is quickly becoming unavoidable.

Memories are funny things, the way they quietly hang around and linger, waiting for something we see or hear, or an unexpected event to slam them forward into our consciousness to strike us the way headlights assault a dark road. Some memories bring along a smile, others foreshadow danger, and there are those which cry out for resolution. All of this is true for Linda Darby. Linda wonders if she might again be lured into her first lover’s bed. As the pace quickens she does find love, along with friendship, fear, danger, and opportunity.

Faolan believed my life was once again in danger. Except the clan didn't come after me. Now, I have to destroy them. The prophecy confirmed that I'm the only one who can.

To make matters worse, the only person who can see her - courtesy of a book he found in his school library - is a 14-year-old boy genius obsessed with the afterlife.
