Hindsights by Oren Hammerquist

In a near-future Seattle-based world, psychics form a key part of society–filling useful roles in police investigations, fortune-500 companies, anthropology, and anything you can imagine.

Nathan Wald, once a child prodigy, now battles with far more human needs. His special talent makes him a human lie detector but he quickly finds that knowing a lie doesn’t necessarily give him the truth.

Nathan struggles to find his place in society, a society driven in many directions by hate, fear, hidden agendas, and the personally unreachable goal of just being normal.

An emotional and compelling read.
