"Tense, page-turning thriller."

After spending six long years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, Nick Bastille returns home to Bellerose, Louisiana. While he was incarcerated, Nick's young son accidentally drowned. Going back home like a whipped dog with his tail between his legs isn't the way Nick envisioned his life turning out. But he'll survive; he always has.

Also back in Bellerose is Nat Jennings. Three years earlier, her family was murdered. Nat was the prime suspect and subsequently arrested. Although never convicted, small towns have long memories and love gossip. Most townsfolk still feel like Nat got away with murder.

Nat knows that Nick's son was a victim of the same killer who murdered her family. She knows the killer will strike again. And she knows this because she's developed the ability to receive messages from her dead son via automatic writing. Convincing Nick of her abilities is another thing entirely. If she can't get Nick to help her, can she stop a small town serial killer from striking again?

An exciting page-turner, DEPTH PERCEPTION will appeal to the fans of Beverly Barton and Iris Johanson. This tense thriller will keep you up way past midnight.
