Fatal Gift - Softcover

Imagine that you were the secret witness to a sadistic killing, that only the victim was aware of your hidden presence at the scene, and that you were too paralyzed with fear to answer her silent pleas for help. This is Kasey Riteman's dilemma.

Kasey had quit her job to escape the sexual advances of her hateful boss. Hoping to vent her anger, she drove aimlessly into the nighttime countryside, admonishing herself to begin to make adult choices about her life. Going from bad to worse, her old Honda quits running, and she's stranded on an deserted rural road. Seeking help, she stumbles upon the grisly murder, becoming an accidental witness.

Paralyzed by fear, unable to help the woman, she cannot even figure out how to tell the police: realizing that if she goes to the authorities with her murderous tale, she will surely sign her own death warrant. Slowly the perfect solution presents itself, an ingenious scheme so perfect it promises to solve the case and offer Kasey complete protection. Pretending to be a psychic, she leads the police to the murder scene--but when media attention explodes around her, she realizes she is more vulnerable than ever--and she's up against some powerful enemies who don't really believe in psychic phenomenon...
