Experiencing another's past could end her future . . . 

 

Kiera is a memory surgeon. With her gift of removing and holding other's traumatic memories, she's helped dozens of women but hasn't helped herself. Now Dean, a Chicago homicide detective, is asking for even more: for her to look into the memories of a coma victim to help him catch a serial killer.

 

Clues and romance unfurl, but as Dean and Kiera get closer to each other, the killer gets closer to Kiera.

 

The Color of Trauma is a thought-provoking paranormal romantic suspense novel. If you like unconventional heroines, dark themes, and psychological dramas, then you'll love Hollie Smurthwaite's suspenseful story.
