Lira has always been haunted by her dreams, but they're no mere nightmares; each vision is a plea—like this woman chained, abducted, and begging for salvation.
As an amateur sleuth, Lira uses her extraordinary intuitive abilities to assist the police. But this latest case of a woman's abduction is her most challenging yet. The recurring dreams leave Lira desperately searching for clues to the victim's identity and location, even as the weight of this burden threatens to push her to the brink of collapse.

★★★★★ “Sleeping Beauty absolutely blew me away. The character development of Lira Somers? Chef’s kiss. She’s sharp, complex, and beautifully flawed—everything I want in a mystery heroine... The pacing of this book was so smooth—I didn’t even notice how deep I was until I hit that plot twist... This was a total ‘just one more page’ kind of book for me.”
