Sarah Salas buried her clairvoyance at age six, bowing to her family's insistence that she become "normal". Sarah's struggle to suppress her abilities forced her into a lonely, isolated life. Now, her clairvoyance has burst out, and an irresistible psychic pull leads her to a collection of abandoned old photographs in the attic of her new home in the North Cascades. Through each photo Sarah relives the lives of the deceased residents of not only her house, but also its twin, the home of her neighbor Conrad Thompson. One by one, the photographs offer a fragmented tapestry of jealousy, incest, and murder. As Sarah explores the past, she finds herself irresistibly drawn to Conrad. Alone most of her life, she's now surrounded by Conrad's loving family-alive and dead. Conrad may also hold the key to her future-if Sarah is willing to let him into her secluded life. THE GIFT OF THE TWIN HOUSES offers a past that, if accepted, might empower the future.
