Some things are best left unseen...
Heather Reiner has always felt like an outsider. And she doesn't have a normal afterschool job, either. That's because she's got amazing psychic abilities that help the police, well, mostly Detective Tanner, track down dangerous criminals.
Heather has no choice but to embrace her gift of second-sight when her visions take a dangerous turn by revealing a government corruption. And if that weren't bad enough, Heather learns that a local college student is missing, too.
When Heather tells Detective Tanner about her psychic intuition, he asks for her help solving the two seemingly unrelated cases. Yet the hostile police chief is convinced she's a major fraud, and Heather doesn't trust him.
With the help of Tanner and her hot new boyfriend, Heather decides to stop the criminals before they set their diabolical plan into motion. Unfortunately, this also makes her a prime target. But nothing could've prepared Heather for what she'll have to face if she hopes to solve the mystery, or the potentially fatal consequences if she doesn't...

And poor Sean Reilly, the exchange student living in her house, has stumbled on the plan. When Kayla begs, Sean gets roped in.

He looks panicked, "Not in a creepy way though!" "What?" I keep eye contact. "I've just been observing you. That sounds awful." He looks and sounds even more panicked than before, "I mean, I think you're beautiful and I just didn't know how to approach you.
