Thirty-three years after eight-year-old Rachel Clark's body is found at the bottom of a ravine, Kiri Alexander discovers a well-loved Raggey Ann doll outside her door. Little did Kiri know the doll and Rachel's ghost would tear down the wall she'd built to control her psychic powers, and open the floodgate to her own childhood memories... memories she'd rather keep buried. Turning to homicide detective, Logan Mendoza, for help,Kiri must convince him she isn't a fake. Doubt, anger and hostility turn to love, as Logan and Kiri grow close in the quest to find a lost child and to right a wrong three decades later.
A slight movement caught her eye and glancing up, Kiri found a little girl of seven or eight standing in the corner. The child wore the same torn and tattered cleeveless tee shirt and cotton underpants Kiri had seen in her dream. "Who are you?" Kiri whispered. She gripped the bodice of her nightgown under her breasts and remained frozen, as time stood still. Fascinated, she stared as the child shimmered in the early morning light.
"My name's Rachel," the girl sobbed."I can't find Sally."
"Who's Sally.?" Kiri knotted her nightgown in her cold, clammy hands. A wave of relief overcame her when she glanced around the room and dind't see anyone else. How did she get in?
"My sister." The child's face twisted in pain. "Help me find her."
