Elise can’t stop staring at her first foster child. Simon is
only six, with wide lavender eyes and dark curls that make him disarmingly
beautiful. But he doesn’t talk. When she asks him why, he says, “No one likes
the things I say.” She assures him she’s different; she wants to know. When he
finally talks she understands why he has bounced through several foster homes
in two years. Simon speaks of unfathomable things—things he sees that others
don’t… of another Simon who tells him things… of things to come, that then
happen… and things that no one could possibly know, and yet, he does. Is he
psychic or psychotic? Clairvoyant or schizophrenic? She doesn’t know, but she
can’t resist him. He only wants one thing—to find the man who knows where his
mother is. The hunt soon makes them the hunted.
