Aunt Gray has built her reputation as a police consultant on a singular ability: by handling a person's possessions, she can witness past events through them. The technique has helped solve countless cases. Then a man is murdered inside her own home, and Aunt Gray finds herself standing accused of killing someone she has no memory of. Her niece Jackie has stepped in to help with her defense, but Aunt Gray is not sure she wants her memory of that night to return. The case is Howard Kelly. The question of what happened is somewhere Aunt Gray is afraid to look.
