When evil whispers.
Michael Turcotte wants nothing to do with his so-called gift—the ability to see other people’s fates simply by touching them. Michael decides to spend his summer searching for answers about his past. He can’t rest without the sounds of forgotten tragedy echoing through his dreams, but reconstructing his memories will come with a whole new set of problems even he can’t foresee.
Detective Samantha Reilly has always looked out for Michael, but now that she’s taken him into her home, she fears her maternal instincts are lacking. When a brutal gang sets off a chain reaction of crimes, Sam struggles to choose between the two most important things in her life: her job and her new foster son. Fate intervenes when Michael is kidnapped, forcing her two roles to collide.
As Michael’s past meets Sam’s present, their bond will be tested while a city crumbles around them. They’ll need all their skills and a lot of luck in order to survive.

Review: HEARING EVIL by Jason Parent
(Cycle of Evil Book 2)
Michael Turcotte is one of the Gifted who experiences future visions, at the cost of seizures each time. To prevent the visions, he wears gloves and scrupulously avoids touch. In the foster care system since the tragic deaths of his parents when he was only 3, at fifteen Michael is now in the care of his guardian angel, the detective who investigated his parents' case. She knows about Michael's gift, but unfortunately so do some vicious villains with megalomania and their own plans to "change the world ." Unfortunately, this gang has rivals in the "build a Utopia" sweeps, rivals who have been manipulating and planning for decades. It's definitely a "out of the frying, into the bonfire" situation for poor Michael, who never asked for any of this.
