“I was seventeen, and I will always regret not reacting fast enough because it cost me my life. You see, I was reincarnated.”

The first time Vicky Carmichael killed someone, she was only four years old, and she remembered it as though it were yesterday. It was December 19, 1976. She was a happy little girl with parents who loved her dearly and had no idea she aspired to become a serial killer.

She had a gift, or a “superpower,” as she called it. A voice in her head would warn her if someone with evil intentions was nearby. The voice was deep like a man, but it was calm and matter-of-fact, saying things like, “Don’t trust this person,” or “Watch out for the guy at the counter; he is looking to hurt someone.” She had heard the voice long ago in her first life and knew her reincarnated life depended on her paying attention.

In Sheri Lynn Crawford’s debut novel, she delves into a fascinating antiheroine perspective. This empowering, feminist thriller brings to the forefront issues faced by far too many girls, teens, and women. The author begs the question, what if Karma sometimes needs a nudge—or a shove?
