An assassin is hired to kill Bill Carlson, a wealthy man whose life appears to be in the hands of a mysterious client. But an unexpected connection to *Psi Secrets*, a novel the assassin has been reading, begins to complicate his deadly mission. When he discovers that his enigmatic client is also reading the same book, the boundaries between coincidence, fate, and the power of a story become increasingly uncertain. The assassin ultimately makes an unexpected choice: he spares Carlson's life. As Bill and his wife sleep peacefully beside the novel that may have indirectly saved him, one question remains: Was it fate, divine intervention, or the influence of a fictional story that gave a man another chance at life?
