Jayne Ann Krentz: I think a lot of people have had the experience of walking into a strange house or room and getting a weird sensation, an awareness of the atmosphere of the place, that isn't easy to explain. I took that concept and ran with it. Zoe is an interior designer. One day she walks into a client's bedroom where she is almost certain a murder has been committed sometime in the recent past. The walls are screaming. She needs a PI, a cheap one, of course, because she can't afford a top-of-the-line model. Ethan Truax is a struggling PI who badly needs a client. Naturally, they have some problems. She's psychic and he thinks all psychics are frauds. And there's another issue. Ethan once had a very bad experience with a decorator. For her part, Zoe has a lot of qualms about getting involved with a guy who has been married and divorced three times and just barely survived bankruptcy. It's a match made in Arizona.
