Simon Sees

by Othello Bach

Elise can’t stop staring at her first foster child. Simon is only six, with wide lavender eyes and dark curls that make him disarmingly beautiful.But he doesn’t talk. When she asks him why, he says, “No one likes the things I say.” She assures him she’s different; she wants to know. When he finally talks she understands why he has bounced through several foster homes in two years.Simon speaks of unfathomable things—things he sees that others don’t… of another Simon who tells him things… of things to come, that then happen… and things that no one could possibly know, and yet, he does.Is he psychic or psychotic? Clairvoyant or schizophrenic? She doesn’t know, but she can’t resist him. He only wants one thing—to find the man who knows where his mother is. The hunt soon makes them the hunted.

Simon Sees by Othello Bach

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Excellent read. I love mysteries, suspense & thrillers. Ms. Bach didn't disappoint me! The storyline is precise. The characters are perfect. And I was surprised toward the end to where the story led me because I was totally stumped!

Simon is a foster child. He rarely talks. And that is unusual for a 6-year old. Yet Elise is not only able to get Simon to open up, but finds he's very unique. And determined!

I don't want to spoil the storyline by telling you what happens, but if like suspense and thrillers, you will love this book!
