But Kendra Michael's astonishing powers of observation and analysis have made her a favorite of law enforcement agencies all across the country. Blind for the first twenty years of her life, she cares little for investigative work but can't deny her unique skill, or the results she's been able to facilitate. Kendra learned at an early age to become hyper-aware of her surroundings, perfecting the art of picking up the most subtle audio, olfactory, and tactile cues in the world around her. Like a secret weapon, she is in high demand. <br/><br/>Former FBI agent Adam Lynch, known as The Puppetmaster, has weapons of his own. He's a notorious master manipulator, skillfully handling criminals and colleagues alike to get the results he wants. Now he needs Kendra's special brand of help, but she's not interested until Lynch reveals that Agent Jeff StedlerKendra's exis missing and may have run directly into the path of a serial killer. What began as a heinous murder investigation escalates into something even larger and more frightening: a multi-million dollar conspiracy to hide a secret that's worth killing for, again and again and again.</sp<br> <span style="float:right" id="preview"></span> <br><br>Genre: <a class="ameritxt" href="/genres/?gp=M">Mystery</a><br> </div> <br> <div class="sectionhead">Visitors also looked at these books</div><br><div class="similarbook"><a href="/m/liane-moriarty/here-one-moment.htm"><img alt="cover of Here One Moment" src="/img/_.png" data-US="41eR5wDLJWL._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="51AvjhEWyJL._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="41eR5wDLJWL._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="41F5iwe3GCL._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/m/liane-moriarty/here-one-moment.htm">Here One Moment</a><br><a href="/m/liane-moriarty/">Liane Moriarty</a></div><div class="similarbook"><a href="/c/lee-child/safe-enough.htm"><img alt="cover of Safe Enough" src="/img/_.png" data-US="41X+GSFIFkL._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="41YHqfkvvcL._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="41X+GSFIFkL._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="41YHqfkvvcL._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/c/lee-child/safe-enough.htm">Safe Enough</a><br><a href="/c/lee-child/">Lee Child</a></div><div class="similarbook"><a href="/c/michael-connelly/red-eye.htm"><img alt="cover of Red Eye" src="/img/_.png" data-US="51F7GI075BL._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="51XQEyL4+dL._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="51F7GI075BL._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="51XQEyL4+dL._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/c/michael-connelly/red-eye.htm">Red Eye</a><br><a href="/c/michael-connelly/">Michael Connelly</a> and <a href="/l/dennis-lehane/">Dennis Lehane</a></div><div class="similarbook"><a href="/a/jeff-abbott/no-rest-for-dead.htm"><img alt="cover of No Rest for the Dead" src="/img/_.png" data-US="51iu0SjWcoL._SL500_.jpg" data-GB="51kbtw1HRfL._SL500_.jpg" data-CA="51iu0SjWcoL._SL500_.jpg" data-AU="51kbtw1HRfL._SL500_.jpg" width="120" height="185"></a><br><a href="/a/jeff-abbott/no-rest-for-dead.htm">No Rest for the Dead</a><br><a href="/a/jeff-abbott/">Jeff Abbott</a>, <a href="/a/lori-armstrong/">Lori Armstrong</a>, <a href="/b/david-baldacci/">David Baldacci</a>, <a href="/b/sandra-brown/">Sandra Brown</a>, <a href="/c/thomas-h-cook/">Thomas H Cook</a>, <a href="/d/jeffery-deaver/">Jeffery Deaver</a>, <a href="/g/diana-gabaldon/">Diana Gabaldon</a>, <a href="/g/tess-gerritsen/">Tess Gerritsen</a>, Andrew F Gulli, Lamia Gulli, <a href="/j/peter-james/">Peter James</a>, <a href="/j/j-a-jance/">J A Jance</a>, <a href="/k/faye-kellerman/">Faye Kellerman</a>, <a href="/k/raymond-khoury/">Raymond Khoury</a>, <a href="/l/john-lescroart/">John Lescroart</a>, <a href="/l/jeff-lindsay/">Jeff Lindsay</a>, <a href="/l/gayle-lynds/">Gayle Lynds</a>, <a href="/m/alexander-mccall-smith/">Alexander McCall Smith</a>, <a href="/m/phillip-margolin/">Phillip Margolin</a>, <a href="/p/michael-palmer/">Michael Palmer</a>, <a href="/p/t-jefferson-parker/">T Jefferson Parker</a>, <a href="/p/matthew-pearl/">Matthew Pearl</a>, <a href="/r/kathy-reichs/">Kathy Reichs</a>, <a href="/s/marcus-sakey/">Marcus Sakey</a>, <a href="/s/jonathan-santlofer/">Jonathan Santlofer</a>, <a href="/s/lisa-scottoline/">Lisa Scottoline</a>, <a href="/s/r-l-stine/">R L Stine</a> and <a href="/t/marcia-talley/">Marcia Talley</a></div><div class="spacer"></div><br> <div id="usedsection" class="sectionhead">Used availability for Iris Johansen's Close Your Eyes</div> <iframe id="abeframe" style="visibility:hidden;" width="710" height="0" src="about:blank" data-src="/frames/abe.001.htm"></iframe> <br> <div id="genre-list"></div>  <div class="ad-banner-bottom">  <div id='div-gpt-ad-1561798315429-0'> <script> if (!noads) googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1561798315429-0'); }); </script> </div> </div>   <br> <div class="search"> <form action="/search/"><span class="searchtxt">Search for  </span><select class="searchselect" name="searchfor" onchange="this.form.keywords.focus();"><option selected="selected" value="author">Author</option><option value="book">Book</option><option value="series">Series</option></select>  <input class="searchinput" type="text" name="keywords" maxlength="60" required>  <input type="submit" value="Find"></form> </div> <a href="/about.htm">About Fantastic Fiction</a>       <a href="/information-for-authors.htm">Information for Authors</a> <br> <div class="footer"> <a href="/privacy.htm">Privacy Policy</a>       <a href="/cookie-policy.htm">Cookie Policy</a>       <a href="/terms.htm">Terms</a>       <a href="/affiliate-disclosure.htm">Affiliate disclosure</a>       <a href="/preferences.htm">Preferences</a> <br> Questions?
