The Psychic On The Jury

Brian C. E. Buhl

When there’s a psychic on the jury, how can justice be blind?

A Mel Walker Story

Mel Walker, a psychic living in Sacramento with the ability to see ghosts and look into the past, is summoned to serve on a jury. It’s not just any case, either: it’s a murder trial. With someone in the jury box who doesn’t have to worry about shadows of doubt, justice should be easily served, right?

When the prosecution and the defense attorneys are unevenly matched, it’s up to Mel to make sure the jury arrives at the right verdict, even if it means exposing his secret. Even if it means putting himself — or others — in danger.
