Fate in plain sight.
Major Crimes Detective Samantha Reilly prefers to work alone—she’s seen as a maverick, and she still struggles privately with the death of her partner. The only person who ever sees her softer side is Michael Turcotte, a teenager she’s known since she rescued him eleven years ago from the aftermath of his parents’ murder-suicide.
In foster care since his parents’ death, Michael is a loner who tries to fly under the bullies’ radar, but a violent assault triggers a disturbing ability to view people’s dark futures. No one believes his first vision means anything, though—not even Sam Reilly. When reality mimics his prediction, however, Sam isn’t the only one to take notice. A strange girl named Tessa Masterson asks Michael about her future, and what he sees sends him back to Sam—is Tessa victim or perpetrator?
Tessa’s tangled secrets draw Michael and Sam inexorably into a deadly conflict. Sam relies on Michael, but his only advantage is the visions he never asked for. As they track a cold and calculating killer, one misstep could turn the hunters into prey.

Summary
Sam is a homicide detective who befriends a boy she finds at a homicide scene. Michael is special and has visions of future events. Years later, Michael turns to Sam to help him prevent a murder involving two of his classmates. After reading the first few chapters you will be hooked to the end of the book. Not much in the way of narration about the characters or where they live and go to school. The story mostly follows the actions and lives of Michael, Tessa and Jimmy. The storyline does touch on child abuse involving sexual situations between Tessa and her father but not in great detail. Not really a horror story and while there is some suspense, it is not a murder mystery. This was a fast read and the story was interesting to the end. I would recommend this to my friends.
Violence Two murder scenes that are fairly violent but the author does not go into every gory detail.
