What if your life was turned upside down and you suddenly had the ability to see, hear and communicate with those on the other side? How would you handle the situation?
Distant Heart Sounds takes a look at what Morgan Cutler encounters after an unexpected near-death-experience leaves her with psychic abilities. As a 40-ish, skeptical, heard-it-all-before, metro Detroit emergency center nurse, Morgan believes she has seen just about everything in her 20+ years on the job, but then one day, she feels someone she cannot see.
The new Morgan opens herself to a relationship with a hunky doctor at the emergency center, who has some psychic ability as well. Romance, humor, mystery, and being connected to others bring peace and joy into her life.
But what happens when Morgan witnesses the evil inside one man’s heart? Some secrets are better left unseen.
EXCERPT
He pushed her once again, and this time she fell to the edge of the river. John kneeled next to her. She laughed at him and called him a white trash cracker. At those words, John turned bright red and seemed to explode. That’s when Morgan saw John turn Maryanne over like a rag doll and held her face in the water—he sat on her legs and held her down until she was motionless.
John stood and looked down at Maryanne’s face. He panicked and looked around for a large rock. He could barely pick it up, but he used it to smash the left side of her head. Blood was everywhere. Breathing heavily, he removed her shoes and dragged her into the river. He dropped her shoes in a grassy area and lifted her body. With all his might, he threw her into the river, hoping if someone found her, they would assume she had an accident in the water. John ran for his car, started it, and hurried from the scene. There was a newspaper on the back seat with the date of August 31, 1959.
Morgan’s vision cleared and the old man’s grip felt like a hot coal scorching her hand. She shook loose and wiggled her fingers.
“Wow, quite a handshake, there, Mr. Talbot. You’re a very strong man,” Morgan said.
“I’ve been a farmer all of my life,” he said slowly. The expression in his eyes sent chills down her spine. “That work makes you strong if it doesn’t kill you.”
“Same is true for nursing,” Morgan said and smiled.
