The Red Hoodie

As psychic consultant to the Montreal Police Service, Amber perceives a flash of red from one file among hundreds stored in the cold case unit. It’s a sign that the victim in a decades-old case needs her help: eight-year-old Marie Troy.

The little girl dropped off a jar of soup at her grandmother’s, then walked to school but she never got there. The red hoodie she wore that day was her favorite, but it—along with Marie—were never found.

Amber can’t help but compare the details of Marie’s case to Little Red Riding Hood. Are investigators searching for yet another child abductor obsessed with fairy tales?

Time is running out. Amber and her partner, Detective Sergeant Ryan Baxter, have a quota of cold cases to solve, or the unit will be shut down. Amber’s psychic gift is a closely held secret, but the disturbing insights she gets from the evidence makes it difficult to hide her reactions from other colleagues. Her attraction to Ryan is another secret she’s hiding from them.

Can Amber keep her secrets hidden while she rushes to solve another cold case?
