Mind Games

Thea Fox is twelve the summer her parents are murdered in their Virginia home. She is hundreds of miles away at her grandmother Lucy's farm in Redbud Hollow, Kentucky — and she sees the whole thing anyway, in a dream that is not a dream. The gift runs down the women of her family, and the man who killed her mother and father, a drifter named Ray Riggs, has it too.

Raised by Lucy, Thea grows into an artist and coder who channels her visions into a wildly successful fantasy game franchise. She builds a quiet, deliberate life in the hollow. But Riggs is in prison and still in her head, and the psychic thread that let her witness the murders runs both ways.

Nora Roberts spans decades in this standalone suspense novel, following Thea from grief-stricken child to a woman with a career, a home, a musician neighbour named Ty Brennan who is trying to raise a son and rebuild a life, and a killer she will eventually have to face on her own terms.
