A woman who can experience other people’s traumatic memories is coerced into helping a Chicago homicide detective catch a serial killer.
"An impressive slice of suspense fiction anchored by two fiery heroes with brio to spare." - Kirkus Reviews
". . . I was on the edge of my chair for the last thirty pages." - Windy City Reviews
Experiencing another's past could end her future . . .
Kiera is a memory surgeon. With her gift of removing and holding other’s traumatic memories, she’s helped dozens of women but hasn’t helped herself. Now Dean, a Chicago homicide detective, is asking for even more: for her to look into the memories of a coma victim to help him catch a serial killer.
Clues and romance unfurl, but as Dean and Kiera get closer to each other, the killer gets closer to Kiera.
The Color of Trauma is a thought-provoking paranormal romantic suspense novel. If you like unconventional heroines, dark themes, and psychological dramas, then you’ll love Hollie Smurthwaite’s suspenseful story.
Content warning: Explicit sex scenes, references and depictions of physical and sexual violence (NOT between the protagonists), PTSD reactions, minor drug use, profanity and not just a little.
The Color of Trauma was the 2020 winner of the Soon to be Famous Illinois Author contest, which was judged by librarians.
