Touching Evil (Bishop/Special Crimes Unit, Bk 4)

This is the story of Maggie, a psychic empath who listens to crime victims horrible experiences and creates an exact sketch of the criminal. She's very successful up until she begins to help the police with their hunt for a serial rapist who wears a plastic mask and blinds his victims by gouging their eyes out.
John, a wealthy business mogul, joins the cast of characters in this story after his sister is victimized by the killer. After healing from the attack she commits suicide - at least that's what the police think - Maggie and John know better.

Enter the plot points that spoiled the story: Maggie's brother is also psychic and talks to someone who isn't named during the course of the story at all. Then John brings in two friends from an FBI special unit to help with the investigation. They are also psychic.
The first in the Evil trilogy. I really enjoyed this book and it isn't neccessary to read them in any order to understand what is going on. Each book has a new main character and only a few of the other characters come to "visit" in them. A must read!
