The newly-discovered novel from multi-million-selling author Joy Ellis. Never before published!

Flower shop owner Ellie McEwan is driving home late one frosty November night when a shadowy figure leaps into the road out of nowhere. Ellie swerves to avoid him - and slams head-on into the crash barrier.

Days later, Ellie wakes up in hospital - and notices there's something different. Everyone she looks at - the doctor, the nurse, her friend Carole - is surrounded by a coloured aura. Her near-death experience seems to have given her a new ability.

And now Ellie must use her new-found gift to catch a killer.

The battered body of a young woman is found in the grounds of a local hotel. She's the third woman to be murdered in this sleepy Surrey village, her hands crushed and mutilated. Just like the other two.

Each of the women was a skilled professional - a musician, a doctor and an artist. Apart from that, they appear to have nothing in common.

And now the police's one lead - a key witness - is missing.

Although sceptical, a desperate DCI Bob Foreman calls on Ellie for help. But Ellie's involvement in the investigation will throw her into the path of a brutal killer . . .
