HAVEN'T YOU WONDERED? Undercover, on skid row . . . Owen Brophy, summoned by a street psychic, is alarmed when she knows his real name-and unnerved by her obstinate question: "Who did you abandon back home?" Home. The Okanagan Valley. Owen hasn't been there since he was a kid. Hasn't seen his oldest friend-a guy he once loved like a brother, a man he's long been estranged from-in years. Yet the psychic forecasts an ominous collision: past will crash against present when his old buddy exhumes a long-concealed secret-a secret more than one person has died for. A secret someone will kill to keep hidden. OR MAYBE YOU KNOW Unannounced, at her door . . . A grisly package arrives for Natalya Nikoslav, its cryptic verse clearly written by someone who knows her history something she, abandoned as a toddler, has never been able to unearth on her own. Shaken, Natalya scours her psychic shadows to see where this package has come from. She's shocked by what she sees: her tombstone. Its death date waxes and wanes alongside an enigmatic spectre, a man she almost-almost!-recognizes, begging for her help. A retrocognitive, Natalya knows her psychic shadows are limited to the past . . . yet this man is unmistakably calling out from her future. And he's frantic-they'll both die if she doesn't come home. But . . . where is home? Who is he? And when she finds him will she know . . . WHERE DID ALL THE CHILDREN GO?
