'Having spent half her life in asylums, Mira discovers a sense of self-worth, finally, in helping victims of crime.

But Freddie Leopard, a dangerous sociopath, tries to destroy Lockman′s reputation... and Mira.

'Layers of secrets unravel as her world falls apart - until the ultimate sacrifice presents a chance to save her friend and revisit her lost love in the "echoes of yesterday."' (From the publisher's website.)
