Investigating corpses was the last job she wanted. Bringing them back to life is definitely a first.

Patrol Officer Darby Shaw is on edge. Anxiously awaiting her exam results and a promotion to detective, homicide is not a department on her dream assignment list. But she becomes their most coveted employee when she investigates a domestic violence incident... and inexplicably resuscitates a stone-cold murder victim.

Confirmed as a new type of superhuman, the stunned cop is caught in a fury of prying agencies desperate to claim authority over her paranormal breakthrough. And with public suspicion of those with supernatural abilities running high, her career and her future depend on one terrifying goal: prove she can bring more bodies back from the dead.

Can Darby fight prejudice and carve out a unique policing role before she's the next one on the slab?
