Synopsis
When Gemini Andrews laid eyes on Captain Deverell Jansen, she didn't need her psychic abilities to know that he would soon be heroes. It was just a a matter of convincing him. So when Gemini learns of his voyage to Northrope in search of a vicious killer whose victims are left strewn among the Druid Stones, she hatches a plan. Knowing she can help - and with hops of growing closer to Dev - she stows away on his ship.... Dev is shocked to discover Gemini, knowing what this kind of stunt could do to her reputation. Yet after learning of her powers, he realizes he does need her, in more ways than one. These murders could be the work of notorious killer Jack Poole - but from beyond the grave? Together they are thrust into the realm of the supernatural, and Dev must trust in the love that Gemini is so certain of - or else there's no hope of withstanding the strength of a killer's thirst....
