In Plain Sight

Abbey O’Rourke’s grandmother—“Gram” to Abbey—was the most intriguing person Abbey knew. Gram also was the one person to whom Abbey could turn when her life went awry. Gram’s house was Abbey’s refuge after her mother’s harsh commentary on Abbey’s recent breakup. But as Abbey, still fuming, watched her mother drive away, her mood shifted from annoyance to puzzlement as she heard Gram say, “She is afraid.”

In that moment, Abbey had no idea how dramatically her world was about to change—Gram quickly moved to a new topic, dispensing with further explanation. Abbey soon realized, however, that Gram’s cryptic comment was just the tip of the iceberg. Secrets, it seemed, abounded in the family. Eventually, Abbey would learn that her family history included a link to an ancient prophecy and a mystical tribe of people with telepathic power—a power so strong that people she’d never met would be willing to kill to control it.

H.L. Stafford's In Plain Sight is filled with intrigue, taut action, and edge-of-your-seat suspense. It’s also a heartwarming love story—Abbey meets Michael, and they form an immediate connection. Stafford skillfully weaves the story lines together and then ties up the ends in a thrilling, surprising, and supremely satisfying conclusion.
