Some gifts come with a terrible price.
Tommy Langley was just a wilderness guide from Colorado — until he was struck by lightning on a routine climb up the Mount of the Holy Cross. He survived. His client, legendary Hollywood director Ed Bandini, did not. But something else happened on that mountain. Now, when Tommy touches another person, he can see their darkest secrets.
Dragged into the glittering, corrupt world of Hollywood for Bandini’s funeral, Tommy meets the director’s daughter, Carla, a beautiful, haunted young woman who has spent her life surrounded by predators. When Tommy’s new ability reveals the horrifying truth about the powerful men who orbit the industry, he and Carla form an unlikely alliance to expose a hidden network of child exploitation and abuse that reaches the highest levels of power.
Now they’re being hunted. The closer they get to the truth, the more dangerous it becomes. Because in Hollywood, some secrets are worth killing to protect.
Seer is a gripping supernatural thriller from Mike Baron, the legendary comic book writer best known for his groundbreaking work on Marvel’s The Punisher.

Mike Baron is a comics legend turned novelist. With illustrator Steve Rude he co-created Nexus, the groundbreaking science-fiction series that earned him two Eisner Awards and an Inkpot Award and has been published in five languages.
