Former cop Luther Malone, a lifelong member of a secret paranormal organization known as the Secret Society, is about to meet Grace Rehnquist. She was hired as an aura-reading consultant in the search for a murder suspect, but she has no experience in such work. Grace is from the small town of Eclipse Bay, Oregon.

She has already seen something similar in her life - a life that she does not tell either Luther or anyone else about. And she understands how dangerous these people can be... Especially when they have “para-hunters” on their side. While employers from the Jones & Jones agency are looking for a replacement for them, Luther and Grace are forced to act at random.
