A New York Times Bestseller Dr. Charlotte "Charlie" Stone has dedicated her career as a psychiatrist to exploring the darkest territory of all: the hearts and minds of serial killers. It?s a job she?s uniquely suited for, thanks to a secret talent -- Charlie can see dead people. Then murder comes to Charlie?s door in the form of a terrified young woman fleeing a homicidal maniac. And saving her life places Charlie squarely in the cross-hairs of a sadistic predator nicknamed "the Gingerbread Man."
