Miles Warren hails from a long line of psychics. Resigned to a life in the family business, Miles is perfectly happy, thank you very much. Apart from the fact he hasn’t told anyone he’s gay, and that he’s constantly exhausted from long nights spent wrangling angry ghosts in creepy cemeteries. Perfectly happy. Miles’ comfortable routine is interrupted when he starts having visions of an unfamiliar boy. He soon learns the stranger is none other than Gabriel Hawthorne, whose family have a mysterious, decades-long feud with Miles’ own – and that the visions are a premonition of his murder. Gabriel is everything Miles expects from a Hawthorne: rude, snobbish, irritatingly good-looking. But that doesn’t mean Miles is just going to stand by and let someone kill him. The two form an uneasy alliance, trying to solve Gabriel’s murder before it happens.
