A Boy with a Gift, a Family with a Secret: Six-year-old Simon Daniels, a foster child with psychic abilities, is placed with Elise Morris, a woman battling her own demons. Simon's visions reveal a man tied to his mother’s disappearance, forcing Elise to decide if she can trust a child whose gift could unveil truths they’re not ready to face.

Visions that Reveal, and a Conspiracy that Kills: As Elise begins to trust Simon, they uncover a dark conspiracy connected to Dr. Whitcombe, linked to a sinister organ trafficking ring. Their pursuit of the truth becomes increasingly dangerous as Simon’s visions intensify, putting both of their lives in jeopardy.

A Haunting Discovery, and a Quest for Belonging: In the climactic confrontation, Simon and Elise expose Whitcombe’s crimes and find justice for Simon’s mother. The resolution strengthens their bond, turning them into a family built on trust and resilience. Simon Sees is a story of overcoming trauma, seeking belonging, and facing one’s darkest fears with hope and love.

Unique Selling Points: Simon Sees is a Supernatural Thriller based on  the novel by Best-Selling Author, Othello Bach. The novel has 5-star ratings on Amazon. 

Comparatively it is a cross between "The Sixth Sense," and "The Wizard of OZ." While maintaining the intensity of a thriller it is at once the story of finding a place in a world that doesn't understand one's unique gifts and abilities. It is a healing journey for both of its main characters. Simon emerging from the devastating effects of the loss of his mother and the cruelties of the foster system and Elise finding closure from a turbulent relationship with her mother.
