Sie hat die schreckliche Wahrheit gesehen ? durch die Augen eines Mörders.Die sechzehnjÿhrige Vee hat Narkolepsie.

Vee sieht, was diese Person gerade sieht ? ohne deren Taten beeinflussen zu können. Doch noch nie war es so grausam wie in dieser Nacht: Sie sieht durch die Augen eines Mörders. Und sie kennt das Opfer: Es ist Sophie, die beste Freundin ihrer Schwester Mattie. Für die Polizei sieht es aus wie Selbstmord, nur Vee kennt die schreckliche Wahrheit, und sie begreift schnell, dass auch Mattie in Gefahr schwebt. Nur ? wie soll sie herausfinden, in wessen Körper sie war?»Ich will etwas sagen, doch es kommt nur ein komisches Krÿchzen heraus. Mein Kopf dröhnt, es fühlt sich an, als würde er platzen. Es wird dunkel, ich sinke zu Boden.Ich werde mich nie daran gewöhnen, durch die Augen eines anderen zu sehen. Es ist, als sÿhe jeder Mensch die Welt in einer anderen Farbe. Es kommt mir vor, als setzte ich ein Puzzle zusammen - was sehe, höre, rieche ich? Lauter Hinweise. Verdammt. Wer ist es?Ich sehe ein Bett. Ein Laken. Es ist dunkelrot. Und nass. Ganz nass. Auf dem Bett liegt etwas. Jemand. Es ist ? O nein! Ihr schwarzes Haar umrahmt ihr blasses Gesicht. Sie hat die Arme hilflos neben sich ausgestreckt, in jedem Handgelenk klafft ein langer, blutiger Schnitt.Nein. Nein. Nein.Das passiert nicht wirklich.Dann sehe ich, was ich in meinen verhüllten Hÿnden halte.Eine lange, silberne Klinge.«
