"When" by Victoria Laurie follows the story of a young woman named M.J. who possesses a unique gift: she can see the date of death for everyone she encounters. This ability is both a blessing and a curse, as it weighs heavily on her conscience. When she is drawn into a murder investigation that relates to her gift, M.J. must navigate dangerous territory, confront her own fears, and ultimately decide how to use her abilities for good. As she uncovers chilling truths, she learns that the past can haunt you, and sometimes knowing when someone will die can change everything.
