“Good, ‘cause we should really go now.” He kept chuckling every once in a while, then thanked his lucky stars he hadn’t decided to make a run for it. He knew I’d trip over something. I almost told him that maybe he had ESP or something, but I held my tongue. I was in enough trouble already.
Shelby Nichols is an average woman whose life is organized and predictable. But the day she stops at the grocery store for some carrots, everything changes. As the cashier scans her purchases, a gunman is busy robbing the store. When shots ring out, Shelby finds herself face to face with the killer. The next thing she knows, she's lying on the floor with a bullet wound to her head. Luckily, the bullet only grazes her scalp, and she doesn't suspect any lasting effects until later, when she suddenly 'hears' what people are thinking. With this uncanny ability, her life takes on a whole new dimension. Her kids think she's bossy and too old to understand them, but that's nothing compared to her husband. He says he loves her, but what is it about the redhead at work that he doesn't want her to know? As if that isn't enough, the gunman knows she can identify him, and he's out to silence her forever. In her fight to stay alive, she is saved from certain death by a handsome hit-man with ties to organized crime. This pulls Shelby even deeper into danger, where knowing someone's thoughts can not only hurt her feelings, but get her killed.
