An excerpt from Sensing the Storm:

"It's you," Ricky said to Dr. Tahara, his high voice rough and breaking. "You're the one who can help me."

Ricky blinked again. His eyes still had that jumpy movement, but his face and his vitals remained calm.

When his gaze met Sandy's, she felt a jolt of recognition that made no sense to her at all.

"You know, too," Ricky said, raising his head toward Sandy.

"Okay, Ricky," Sandy said. "I'm Dr. Hughes, and I've known Dr. Tahara for years. How can we help you?"

Ricky closed his eyes, long, curling lashes overlapping before he blinked them open again.

"You can't help me. I have to help you."
