Mindy Mejia

    Mindy Mejia writes because her favorite game since childhood has been pretend. Her work gravitates toward the symmetry, theme, and symbolism she finds lacking in her own life. She is captivated by the beauty and power of perfect words and believes in the reality of her fantasies and the truth of her fabrications. The thrillers that emerge from her imagination often feel more real to her than her own existence.

      In this brand new series from national bestseller Mindy Mejia, a physicist and a psychic reluctantly team up to solve two missing persons cases during an ice storm in Iowa. When her husband's car is found abandoned and on fire--in the middle of a rainstorm--Eve Roth becomes the police's number one suspect. After all, her husband was suspended from the University of Iowa for inappropriate conduct with a student, and who else but an atmospheric physicist could incinerate a car in a downpour? But Eve has no idea why her husband disappeared. She's desperate to find him, both for herself and her beloved, disabled father-in-law. Jonah Kendrick appears on their doorstep with a theory. He's seen Eve's husband, bound and bleeding in a barn. Claiming to be a psychic detective who dreams of the lost, Jonah has helped find missing people his entire life. He dreamed about a young woman trapped in the same barn months ago, and she's still missing. As a firm believer in the laws of nature, Eve rejects anything to do with psychics, but their investigations soon collide. As the temperature drops and Iowa turns to ice, Eve and Jonah race across the state to discover what happened to the people they've lost. But the truth is more deadly either of them expected, and the physicist and the psychic must learn to believe in each other if they want to escape this storm alive.

      Priča puna nevjerojatnih obrata rekonstruira godinu dana života inteligentne i talentirane djevojke tijekom koje će mračne tajne maloga provincijskog grada izaći na vidjelo … a djevojka će svakoga dana biti sve bliže i bliže svojoj smrti. Hatiie Hoffman učenica je završnog razreda gimnazije. Cijeli život igra različite uloge: odlična učenica, privržena kći, predana susjeda i lojalna članica lokalne zajednice. Kada je pronađena brutalno izbodena nožem nakon premijere dramske skupine u kojoj je igrala Lady Macbeth, tragedija provaljuje kroz tkivo ove male provincijske zajednice. Lokalni šerif Del Goodman, obiteljski prijatelj Hoffmanovih, poduzima sve kako bi otkrio ubojicu, ali njegova istraga donosi više pitanja nego odgovora. Čini se kako je Hattiena glumačka darovitost daleko nadilazila kazališne daske. Ovaj roman provocira granicu između nevinosti i krivnje, istine i laži. Vodi li ljubav do samospoznaje ili destrukcije?
