She sees what others miss. That's why they think she's guilty.Dr. Mira Tennant doesn't think like other people. As a data analyst for a financial crimes unit, her autistic brain transforms chaos into patterns, noise into clarity. During her precisely timed morning run, she witnesses a woman falling from a seventh-floor balcony-and while everyone else sees a tragic suicide, Mira catalogs thirteen inconsistencies that don't add up. The problem? When she reports them to police, her pattern recognition and precise recall make her look obsessed. Her difficulty with eye contact makes her seem evasive. Her need for factual accuracy makes her appear calculating. Suddenly, this neurodivergent detective isn't the witness-she's the prime suspect.What readers are saying: ★★★★★ "A psychological thriller that kept me up all night! The autistic protagonist brings such a fresh perspective to the detective mystery genre. I couldn't stop turning pages."★★★★★ "Finally, a female detective who thinks differently and uses it as her superpower! The serial killer suspense had my heart racing, and the forensic psychology details were brilliant."Suspended from work and under police surveillance, Mira launches her own investigation into what she knows is murder. Her data analysis skills uncover four more deaths-all women, all staged as suicides, all connected by microscopic patterns that were individually dismissed but collectively impossible. Each victim had recently met someone charming, someone perfect, someone who understood exactly what they needed. But this psychological suspense runs deeper than anyone imagined: the killer is eliminating witnesses to a thirteen-year-old crime, and they're someone with access to forensic information who knows how to stage death perfectly.When Mira disrupts an attempted murder and saves a traumatized witness, the hunter becomes the hunted. The killer begins leaving "gifts"-crime scene visualizations in her own analytical style, proving they understand how her mind works. They offer her a devil's bargain: stop investigating or be framed for every murder. But Mira's pattern recognition has already identified their fatal flaw. This amateur sleuth turned crime thriller heroine must use her literal, fact-based thinking to outsmart a predator who manipulates through psychology and emotion-weapons that don't work on someone whose brain processes the world through data instead of social cues.In a climactic confrontation where forensic psychological thriller meets technological innovation, Mira proves that being dismissed and underestimated her entire life has made her the one investigator this serial killer never saw coming. Her different way of thinking isn't a liability-it's what solves a case that stumped neurotypical detectives for over a decade.Perfect for readers who love: Strong female protagonists who think outside the box - Twisty psychological suspense with authentic representation - Detective mysteries featuring unconventional investigators - Murder investigation thrillers with forensic details - Page-turning suspense where the witness becomes suspect - Crime fiction that celebrates cognitive diversity - Complex serial killer plots with satisfying resolutionsTHE PATTERN WITNESS delivers edge-of-your-seat thriller suspense while showcasing how neurodivergent minds can see truths that others miss.
