Anya Michaels is having the time of
her life. She has the man of her dreams by her side. She has graduated at the
top of her class. She has the job others were lining up for. Between late night
drinks at her favourite bar and fancy dinners at the most expensive
restaurants, she has a string of adoring friends. Everything changes when she
hears the dreaded words, “You are sick.”
Being diagnosed with a rare
neurological disorder, her world starts to fall apart, one piece at a time. Now
dumped, her four year relationship is nothing but a memory filled with
pictures, thoughts and a very broken heart. Her job becomes an even further
challenge as she tries to hide her condition. Her friends suddenly have more
important things to do, what is a party without a party girl? Perfect could not
crumble any faster.
Soon, caught between situations,
people and pieces of life that she never dreamed of planning for herself, Anya
begins to wonder if her brain condition is all that bad. As she absorbs the
changes in her life and realization sets in, she begins to wonder if she is the
only one saying: Excuse Me, My Brains Have Stepped Out.

An emotional read that tests the strength of one's own ability to deal with a parent's worst nightmare.
Nine years ago, Molly Tanner witnessed a young girl's abduction in the busy city of Philadelphia, shifting her occasional clairvoyance into overdrive. Two days later, the girl's body was found, and Molly's life fell apart. Consumed by guilt for not acting upon her visions, and on the brink of losing her family, Molly escaped the torturous reminders in the city, fleeing to the safety of the close-knit rural community of Boyds, Maryland.
Molly's life is back on track, her son has begun college, and she and her husband have finally rekindled their relationship. Their fresh start is shattered when a seven-year-old girl disappears from a local park near Molly's home. Unable to turn her back on another child and troubled by memories of the past, Molly sets out to find her, jeopardizing the marriage she'd fought so hard to hold together. While unearthing clues and struggling to decipher her visions, Molly discovers another side of Boyds, where the residents--and the land itself--hold potentially lethal secrets, and exposes another side of her husband, one that threatens to tear them apart.
