In this world, Dr. Charlotte "Charlie" Stone skillfully probes the twisted minds of serial killers, the better to understand and apprehend them. In the next world, though, her ghostly lover convicted killer Michael Garland is facing death yet again, unless she can save his soul from oblivion by proving his innocence. And this dead man's dead ringer may be the key. Rick Hughes could be Michael Garland's identical twin, but Charlie suspects that behind the handsome face lurks the murderer whose crimes Michael paid for. Now she's determined to use her profiling talents to uncover the truth. But when a prison break frees a gang of psychopaths, duty calls Charlie to join the manhunt--even if it makes her a target. And if Michael wants to hold her one last time, he must make a devil's bargain: to trade his doom for her deliverance.
