Mind Games - Paperback

by Landon Prosser (Author)

Keesha Marshall thought she was finally free after her manipulative ex, Darius King, landed behind bars-but survival proved to be a never-ending process. Even with extra locks on the doors and Detective Elena Rodriguez working overtime, the specter of Darius's psychic hold remained. Under the surface of normal routines-brewing coffee, sorting the mail-Keesha still braced for the mind-twisting illusions and subtle manipulations that once shattered her sense of reality. Her daughter Grace, already carrying scars from scoliosis and a heart transplant, quietly battled even darker horrors: memories of being used as Darius's psychic pawn. Then, in a twisted turn of fate, he reappears on Grace's birthday, setting a trap of public humiliation that backfires-and catapults everyone into a nightmarish new ordeal.

Now, a reluctant alliance of survivors scrambles to save Grace while keeping Darius's powers caged for good. Detective Rodriguez fights to make sense of medical records that contradict all logic, while Quincy stands guard, grappling with the moral cost of leaving Grace. As whispers of the impossible spread through the neighborhood and a skeptical legal system, mother and daughter cling desperately to each other-Keesha's resolve fueled by the same fierce love that helped them endure Darius's manipulation once before. But each passing day presses them harder: how long can they hold onto their sanity and identity when the lines between victim and villain, body and mind, have blurred beyond recognition? And if there is a way to reverse what has happened, can they risk unleashing a psychic monster back into the world?
